What Is Headlight Restoration ?
Car headlight restoration is the professional process of sanding, polishing, and protecting yellowed or cloudy headlight lenses to restore clarity and improve their appearance.
Most headlights are made from polycarbonate plastic, which can become yellow, hazy, or foggy over time due to UV exposure and weather conditions.
To restore headlights, At Pro Car Detailing we use a multi-stage wet sanding and polishing process, followed by a professional UV-resistant sealant. This helps protect the restored lens from future oxidation and keeps it clearer for longer.

The Carolinas consistently rank among the higher UV index states, and those intense summer sun hours eat away at the factory clear coat on your headlights. Once that UV coating is gone, oxidation takes over and the yellow, hazy look sets in fast.
