Why Do Headlights Go Foggy?

Modern headlight lenses are made from polycarbonate plastic with a UV-protective clear coat. Over time, UV exposure, road salt, and chemical exposure break down this coating, causing the lens to oxidise, yellow and become hazy. This reduces light output by up to 80% — a safety hazard and a common MOT failure point.

Our Restoration Process

1

Mask surrounding paintwork to protect against sanding marks

2

Wet sand the lens through progressive grits (800–3000) to remove oxidation

3

Machine polish with cutting compound to restore full clarity

4

Apply UV sealant or ceramic coating to protect against future oxidation
