Headlight Restoration
Say goodbye to foggy headlights! Book a Premium Headlight Restoration from Delgado Detailing today!
Your headlights are one of the most important safety features on your vehicle! Not only do they help you see while driving at night, but they also let other drivers see you. According to studies performed by the insurance company AAA, driving with old foggy headlights can reduce the light output by up to 80%, leaving the driver with only a mere 20% of usable light output. Not only do foggy lights make your vehicle look less appealing, it is a HUGE safety risk and should be attended to immediately.
We understand that replacing old headlights with genuine OEM replacements can be very costly. With certain lights costing upwards of $1000 per light, we sought to offer a more budget friendly option to address this matter.
Contrary to belief, nothing in this world is permanent. The factory coating applied to an OEM headlight is not as durable as the clear coat applied to the paint. In fact, the durability difference between the clear coats is by design! With the heat generated by the LED or Halogen bulbs, the coating on the headlight will be exposed to high temperatures constantly. Also, due to the headlights being made out of polycarbonate, most automotive 2k clears contain too strong of hardeners in them that may lead to premature flaking, chipping, or spider cracking. This is why you may notice the failure of your headlight coating a lot earlier than your paint’s clear coat. Here are some other external factors that lead to headlight coating failure.
Why do headlights go bad?
UV rays
Rock chips
Bug guts
Drive through brush car washes
Not washing your car for an extended period of time
