    Customers have mixed opinions about the brightness of the product. Some mention that the results are astoundingly brighter, safer headlights, and the difference in visibility at night is astounding.

    "...But the after made them look so much clearer! Definitely lets a lot more light out!..." Read more

    "...and my restored light is now like new. Before and after pics attached...." Read more

    "...Again, my lights were extremely cloudy. But you really have to keep going with the 500 grit until all signs of the cloudyness are completely gone...." Read more

    "...The difference is night and day, literally—my headlights now emit a bright, clear light that significantly improves my nighttime visibility...." Read more

    Looks like new headlights!

    Looks like new headlights!
    I Used this on our 2015 honda odyssey touring elite. We purchased this van brand new 9 years ago and the headlights needed some love now. I absolutely love my van and plan to keep it forever so we decided to invest in her by restoring her, she got a new paint job and it made her headlights look awful instead of spending money on new headlights 1st, I said I will try this for $30 I am shocked how well it came out. They look new! I followed step by step instructions, although each step had me questioning if I was doing the right thing and all I kept telling myself is I'm only out of $30 because I had plan on buying new headlights anyway. Very happy with the outcome and it saved me 100s. I would like to add, I am a middle age woman with chronic health issues and I had no issues doing this project on my own.
    Thank you for your feedback

    So the first picture my lights look awful because my fiance tried to do a quick fix and used some type of bug spray and it made them look way worse, and the 2nd pic is after we sanded the first layer…. But the after made them look so much clearer! Definitely lets a lot more light out! And really easy to do and the kit comes with plenty to do several cars at once.

    I was skeptical about wether or not this would work but I was pleasantly surprised. I forgot to take a before pic but the headlights were very yellowed and foggy. Afterwards, crystal clear. The instructions were detailed as well. Great product!

    Reviewed in the United States on March 10, 2024
    I had this sitting in my car for over a year. Every time I went for an oil change or repair the shop would mention that they do headlight restoration and I knew I really needed to get it done. I finally got around using this and it turned out great. It does take time and your arms will probably get tired. My headlights have little curves in them that made it kind of difficult to sand with the sandpaper on the drill so I just hand sanded some of it. They look great!

    Reviewed in Canada on May 9, 2023
    The instructions are very clear and the product works very well. There is a learning curve and it will only be as good as the effort you are willing to put in. It is a little time consuming but it makes a huge difference. This is the first time in 7 years that I have restored the headlights and it made a big difference in clarity. The picture has the left headlight not done and the right one finished and you can tell the difference easily. I just kept my drill on speed 1 and controlling the sanding was really easy. When using the 3000grit pad use a lot of water and it does a great job making it almost clear, then the compound finished it up to almost like new. I am very pleased with this kit. I do wish it came with a sealing wax for when you finish but that’s not a big deal.

    Este producto es execelente en primera instancia, las micas de mi vehiculo se encontraban en muy mal estado rayadas y amarillentas por el sol, el agua mas de 10 años de vida y si bien no quedaron como saliendo de agencia quede conforme con el resultado lo recomiendo. Ahora a esperar cuanto tiempo dura.
