Headlight Restoration Essex

Up goes your mileage, down goes the effectiveness of your headlights.

Unfortunately, headlight lenses are under a strain from ultra violet rays from the sun, volatile compounds which come from surrounding exhausts, and road dirt etc, which can erode and scratch the transparent headlight casing causing your lenses to turn a discoloured yellow, or have a foggy effect. This has a negative effect on the strength of the beam and can eventually lead to an MOT failure.

Looking for headlight restoration near you? At our Chelmsford workshop we machine sand, polish and UV-seal cloudy or yellowed headlights, bringing back clarity and light output at a fraction of the cost of new headlight units. It usually takes just a few hours, so it can often be done while you wait or alongside other repairs, and we see drivers from across Chelmsford and Essex.

Using the latest techniques and technology we can fully restore your headlights without the need to replace them. Get a free estimation today.

We firstly, prepare your headlights by decontaminating and thoroughly cleaning the lense. The surrounding area will then be masked off and papered up so only the lenses are exposed.

Then we remove the oxidised parts of your lenses so it is back to a smooth surface. We will use different grades of sand paper, from coarse to fine, removing any yellow/foggy pitting particles which will leave is with an even frosted surface.

We then use ultra fine wet and dry paper (3000 grip) to ensure that all minor scratches from previous sandpaper are now completely gone. We make sure we do this long enough so the clarity of the lenses are at their highest level.

Lastly, we polish your headlights to bring back the shine for a crystal clear finish.
