It is a very common occurrence. We see them every day. It’s like a disease – yellow, cloudy headlight lenses. I even saw them on cars at the local carwash. It befuddled me that these people would take such great care – washing, vacuuming the interior, removing the floor mats, and even hand drying their cars, but they still had those yellowed, cloudy headlights. It’s not just a problem with old, very used cars. It is prevalent on 2 – to 3-year-old cars also. It doesn’t matter if it is a Dodge, Ford, Mercedes, or a Porsche.
When questioned, most said they couldn’t afford or didn’t want to pay the high prices of replacements from their local auto dealer. The average price for a pair of replacement plastic headlights at local auto dealerships was around $450 – that didn’t even include installation and alignment (that would be another $60-120). Aftermarket headlights do exist but have received mixed reviews, and the savings aren’t that great, quality and fit are lagging, and then you still had to have them installed and aligned. And for what so you can do it again in another year or two?
There is another solution, there are a patented headlight cleaner and restorer kit. It’s under $20, much less expensive than replacement lenses, and it works!
Plastic headlight lenses are the norm in the automotive industry now – every car has them. Some have fancy names like plexin and Lexan, but they all have the same problems. The sun, acid rain, harsh weather conditions, chemicals (brake fluid, power steering fluid, hot radiator fluids, hot water, harsh cleaners, etc…) will all cause the plastic lenses to degrade and weaken quickly. Some manufacturers have gone to including a protective film on the lenses. Regardless, they are all susceptible to this weakening and yellowing over time.
With this headlight cleaner and restorer, even junkyard car lenses have been restored to brand new. These same lenses used to be discarded and now have become new profit centers for salvage yards all over. The treatment is applied to the exterior of the headlight lens where the damage is worst and it doesn’t take a mechanic to do it.
It is easy to do, doesn’t take very long, and the results are fantastic. So there is a very economic solution to the problem of yellow, cloudy, worn headlights. There’s no excuse now to not have sparkling clean headlights. Car dealerships everywhere are using headlight cleaner and restorer on their cars and you can too.
