Headlight Restoration is a very popular and profitable add-on to auto detailing and even can be a stand-alone business! Most vehicle headlights are covered with a protective, transparent, plastic lens. These headlight lenses protect expensive automotive lamps from flying stones and road debris but they discolor over time. Becoming opaque and cloudy, this can severely restrict the amount of light reaching the road. This clouding is caused by accumulated exposure to ultraviolet light. If you live in a southern state, or Hawaii, this discoloration can become noticeable in as little as 2 years. Headlight Restoration is a much lesser expensive way to go for the consumer. Replacing headlights can cost several hundred dollars after installation. That is why the restoration of foggy and oxidized headlights is a popular business opportunity.
Our Plastic & Headlight Resurfacing/Protector Kit contains everything you need for restoring cloudy headlights allowing you to restore optical clarity to dull, cloudy headlight lens covers in 3 easy steps. Our headlight restoration and cleaning kits come with complete instructions, phone support and we even have a demonstration video that you can watch below to give you a good idea on how the actual headlight restoration process looks.
We have four kits including a Commercial Series Kit that will restore 60-75 sets of headlights, a Professional Series Kit that will restore 30-40 sets, and a basic kit that will restore 3-5 sets. We just recently added a new kit with a pneumatic buffer that will speed up the restoration process. You can also purchase the buffer separately now.
The going rates for headlight restoration is about $50-$100 a pair for wholesale work and $100-$150 and up per pair for retail work to restore a pair of plastic headlights. Your costs for materials (excluding labor) are between $3.00 and $4.00 for each set of headlights, depending on which kit you purchase. You can stay busy and make a lot of money if you are able to obtain work from just a few good car dealerships and of course your regular retail customers. Watch the video below demonstrating the steps on how to restore a headlight on a 2004 Chrysler Sebring.
