Frequently asked questions

Can every cloudy headlight be restored?

No. Internal damage, cracks, failed seals, electrical problems, or severe material failure may require repair or replacement outside a restoration scope.

How long will restoration last?

Durability depends on preparation, protective finish, exposure, storage, and maintenance. Ask the provider what protection is included and how to care for it.
