Frequently Asked Questions
How long do professionally restored headlights last?
With our UV protection coating, restored headlights maintain clarity for 2-3 years. This compares to just 6-12 months for DIY kits or 3-6 months for toothpaste methods.
Can you restore LED or HID headlights?
Yes! We restore the plastic lens cover regardless of bulb type. LED, HID, and halogen headlights all suffer from the same UV oxidation on the outer lens that we fix.
What if my headlights are severely damaged?
We can restore headlights with severe yellowing, fogging, and oxidation. Only lenses with cracks penetrating through the plastic or moisture inside require replacement.
Do you guarantee your work?
Yes, we provide a 100% satisfaction guarantee. If you're not completely happy with the clarity improvement, we'll make it right or refund your money.
How often should headlights be restored?
In Los Angeles' intense UV environment, unprotected headlights oxidize every 2-3 years. Our UV coating extends this to 3-5 years between services.
Is this covered by insurance?
While restoration isn't typically covered, it helps avoid insurance claims for replacement. At $85, it's less than most deductibles anyway.
