Question 1

What is headlight restoration?

Accepted Answer

Question 2

What is fender rolling?

Accepted Answer

Fender rolling is the process of carefully reshaping the inner lip of a vehicle’s fender by folding it in, to create additional clearance between the tire and the body. This helps prevent rubbing when installing wider wheels, lower suspension, or larger tires.

Question 3

How long does headlight restoration last?

Accepted Answer

1 to 3 years, depending on:

• how often the car is driven
• the condition of where the car is stored
• if any harsh chemicals are used on the lens

Question 4

Do you restore headlights on all vehicles?

Accepted Answer

Headlight restoration can be performed on most cars, trucks, SUVs, and motorcycles with plastic headlight lenses. Some cases may need to be discussed before moving forward.

Question 5

Do you do anything else besides headlights?

Accepted Answer

Yes! I do fender rolling and can also restore the look of plastic vehicle logos.

Question 6

Will restoration make my headlights look brand new?

Accepted Answer

In most cases, restoration can dramatically improve clarity and appearance. Severe damage, deep cracks, moisture inside the lens, or internal damage may limit the results.

Question 7

Is headlight restoration better than replacing headlights?

Accepted Answer

Yes, in many cases. Restoration is a cost-effective alternative to replacing expensive headlights, which can cost hundreds.

Question 8

Does headlight restoration improve visibility at night?

Accepted Answer

Yes, cloudy or yellow headlights can reduce the amount of light projected onto the road. Restoring the lens allows more light to pass through, improving nighttime visibility.

Question 9

Do you use protective coating?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we use a 3 year UV protection graphene ceramic costing to seal the plastic headlight lenses.

How long should I wait to wash my car?

1 to 2 weeks, assuring you are gentle on the headlights for the first week.

Question 11

How do I maintain my restored headlights?

Accepted Answer

• Wash your vehicle regularly
• Avoid harsh chemicals on the lens
• Park in shade when possible

Question 12

Can I drive in the rain after a restoration?

Accepted Answer

Getting your headlights wet directly after a restoration is not good. You'll want to wait at least 24-48 hours to allow the ceramic coating to bond before getting your headlights wet.

Question 13

What happens if it gets wet?

Accepted Answer

If water gets to it within the first 24 hours, do not let the water air dry. You will want to gently wipe it off with a clean microfiber towel.

Question 14

Will fender rolling damage my vehicle?

Accepted Answer

When performed correctly with the proper tools and technique, it is a safe process that preserves the exterior appearance of your vehicle. Although it is a possibility, careful preparation is used to minimize the risk of paint cracking or damage.
