EASTUP Headlight Lens Restoration Kit
This Headlight Lens Restoration Kit is designed to restore clarity to headlight lenses that have become yellowed, cloudy, or hazed over time.
By restoring clarity to the lens you improve the performance of the headlight and enhance the appearance of the vehicle. Headlight lenses have either a hard surface layer or a UV resistant coating on the outer surface of the lens. Once a lens has been degraded by sun or UV light and becomes yellowed or cloudy, it is necessary to remove that yellowed layer in order to restore clarity to the lens. The effort required to refurbish headlight lenses will vary greatly by vehicle manufacturer, year, make, model, and headlight design.
With this kit, you will use a 1200-1600 rpm drill equipped with a pad holder and sanding discs to remove the yellowed layer from the headlight lens surface. A higher rpm drill could generate excessive heat and can cause damage to the headlight lens that is difficult to remove. A lower rpm drill does not work efficiently for this process.
The sanding steps will follow to refine or reduce the sand scratches that are made when removing the yellowed layer.
The headlight UV coating will protect against yellowing and re-oxidation.
Finally, the rubbing compound and a foam compounding pad will remove the fine scratches and put the final clarity on the headlight lens.
