Headlight Restoration Melbourne
Polycarbonate headlight lenses oxidise. They go yellow, then hazy, then milky, and they take the front of the car down with them. Restoration cuts that oxidised layer back and refinishes the lens, done at your place alongside whatever else the car is booked in for.

One Service, Quoted On Your Lenses
Headlight restoration is quoted on the vehicle, because how far the lenses have gone decides how much work they need. Send a photo of the lights with your enquiry and Jai can be far more useful on the call.
Optional Extras
Add To Any Package
Headlight restoration is usually booked alongside a detail rather than on its own, and it is priced that way.
- Full DetailHave the whole car brought up while the lights are being done.
- Paint CorrectionClear lenses beside dull, swirled paint only draws attention to the paint.
- Ceramic CoatingProtect the paint at the same visit.
What Is Included
Every Stage, Line By Line
Lens Assessment
How far the oxidation has gone decides the approach, so the lenses get looked at first.
Oxidised Layer Removed
The yellowed, hazy surface cut back rather than covered over.
Lens Refinished For Clarity
Worked back through progressively finer stages until the lens is clear again.
Sealed After Refinishing
An unsealed lens starts oxidising again, so it does not leave unsealed.
Both Headlights, Not One
Doing one lens and leaving the other makes the difference more obvious, not less.
Why SWOUES For This
Why This Work Holds Up
Cut Back, Not Covered Up
A wipe on product can make a hazy lens look clearer for a few weeks. Removing the oxidised layer and refinishing the lens is what lasts, and it is the only version worth paying for.
Sealed Before It Leaves
The step most people skip. An unsealed lens has no protection left on it at all, which is why cheap restorations go yellow again so quickly.
Done At Your Place
It is a job measured in hours, not days, and the whole thing happens on your driveway while you get on with something else.
Told Straight If It Will Not Work
Internal damage, moisture and cracks are not fixable from the outside. You will hear that before you pay for it, not after.
The Basics
Why Headlights Go Yellow
Modern headlight lenses are polycarbonate, not glass, and they leave the factory with a protective coating on the outside. UV, heat and road grit wear that coating away. Once it is gone, the plastic underneath oxidises, and oxidised polycarbonate is yellow and hazy.
01
It Is Not Dirt
No amount of washing brings a hazy lens back, because the haze is in the surface of the plastic rather than on it. That is why cleaning them harder never works.
02
It Is A Visibility Problem Too
A clouded lens scatters light instead of throwing it down the road. The cosmetic side is what people notice, but the beam pattern is what actually matters at night.
03
Why It Has To Be Sealed
Restoration removes the oxidised layer, which also removes whatever was left of the factory coating. Sealing afterwards is what stops the lens hazing over again within months.
04
When Restoration Is Not The Answer
If the lens is cracked, has moisture inside it or the damage is internal, polishing the outside will not fix it. Jai will say so rather than take the job.
