Professional headlight polishing is a controlled correction process, not simply rubbing compound over the lens. The technician diagnoses the defect, protects surrounding surfaces, uses only the correction needed, refines the lens and applies a suitable protective system. Results depend on the starting condition and internal lamp health.
Not every job needs the same abrasive grades. The correct starting point depends on defect depth and product instructions, assessed vehicle by vehicle rather than applied as one fixed recipe.
A suitable lens can show a major visual improvement and may deliver a clearer beam path. Deep stone chips, internal marks and material crazing may remain. We'll always point those out before work rather than promising an “as new” finish that isn't realistic for the lens in front of us.
Mobile restoration needs adequate space, safe access, appropriate weather and a clean enough environment for the chosen protective product. Rain, strong wind, low temperature or contaminated surroundings can make a booking unsuitable on the day — we'd rather reschedule than compromise the finish.
It varies with lens size, damage, previous work and the protection system chosen. We'll confirm a vehicle-specific estimate rather than quoting a fixed universal time.
No. It is used when necessary; unnecessary sanding removes avoidable material.
Usually not without excessive material removal. Lens integrity takes priority over chasing every mark.
The environment must meet the process and product requirements. A covered or rescheduled appointment may be necessary.
Yes — ask us exactly what's included for your specific booking, and we'll confirm it in writing with your quote.
