Description
The Professional Series Headlight Restoration Kit is a pro-grade headlight restoration kit built on the patented Bright Solutions sealed-finish process, for detailers who restore hazed, UV-yellowed polycarbonate headlamps as a paid service and need a restoration that lasts years, not months.

Highlight specs:
- Services up to 30 vehicles or 200 sq ft per kit
- 5-step grit progression: 600 / 1000 / 1500 / 2000 / 2500 sanding sheets
- 8 oz water-base pre-treatment
- 8 oz cleaner/polish
- 2 oz deep fill restorer
- 4 oz shine restorer
- 50 gloves + 100 lint-free towelettes consumables included
- Reusable tool box carrying case
The Professional Series Bright Solutions process sands through the damaged coating with a multi-grit progression, fills micro-scratches with deep fill restorer (if needed), then bonds a UV-protective coating to the bare polycarbonate. That’s the difference between a 2-4 year restoration and a 6-month one.

Bright Solutions is a patented process that closes and seals the headlamp to restore and preserve that “new look” for years. The kit comes in a reusable tool box that contains all the products required.

Who this is for
- Auto detailers adding headlight restoration as an upsell or standalone service
- Mobile detailers looking for a portable kit that fits in a van toolbox
- Used-car dealers restoring inventory in-house
- Serious DIYers with multiple vehicles who want a pro-grade kit instead of disposable retail-store kits
Why the sealed-finish process matters

Retail-store kits typically include one grit of sandpaper and a polish. They remove the surface oxidation but don’t seal the lens, so the yellowing returns in 3 to 6 months. The Professional Series uses the patented Bright Solutions multi-grit progression plus a bonded UV sealant that actually protects the restored surface. That’s the difference between a restoration that lasts 2-4 years and one that fogs back up in months.

Restoration Process
1. Tape off surrounding paint. Headlight sanding compound will dull paint in seconds. Use quality automotive masking tape on all paint edges.
2. Apply Waterbase Pre-treatment and let dwell 2-3 minutes to soften the oxidized layer.
3. Wet-sand through the grit progression: 600 to cut oxidation, 1000 to level, 1500 to refine, 2000 and 2500 to prep for polish. Keep the lens wet the entire time.
4. Polish with the Headlight Cleaner/Polish using an orbital polisher or by hand, working in small sections.
5. Apply Deep Fill Restorer with a polish pad to fill micro-scratches. (only if necessary)
6. Seal with the Headlight Shine Restorer, which contains UV inhibitors that bond to the polycarbonate. This step is what separates a multi-year restoration from a 6-month one.
Total time per vehicle: 30 to 45 minutes for a detailer who’s proficient; plan 60 to 90 minutes for your first few jobs.

DK Tip

The going rate for headlight restoration is about $80 for wholesale work and $100-$150 for retail work for one pair of headlights. Your costs for materials (excluding labor) are between $4.00 and $6.00 for each set of headlights, depending on which kit you buy. 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.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does the restoration last?

With the sealed-finish process, expect a minimum of 12 months, but could be 2 to 4 years before visible oxidation returns, depending on climate and how often the vehicle is parked outdoors. Vehicles kept in a garage or not driven as frequently can get 5+ years.
What's the difference between this kit and the $20 drugstore headlight kits?

Retail-store kits typically include one grit of sandpaper and a polish; they remove the surface oxidation but don't seal the lens, so the yellowing returns in 3 to 6 months. Our Professional Series Kit uses a multi-grit sanding progression plus a bonded UV sealant that actually protects the restored surface.
Can I restore headlights that are cracked, not just oxidized?

No. This kit restores the polycarbonate outer coating; it cannot fix internal reflector damage, cracks, or condensation inside the lens housing. Cracked or internally-damaged lenses need to be replaced.
