As a rule, the brighter your headlights are, the safer you are on the road, regardless of where or what time of day you are driving. Did you know, however, that headlight restoration is one of the most overlooked pieces of essential car and vehicle maintenance?

Why Headlight Restoration is Vital for Better Driving Safety

Have you recently noticed that the light from your headlights is more yellow than bright white? If so, it is important to understand that yellow light rather than bright white light emanating from one or more of your car’s headlights is significantly dimmer and much more easily diffused when driving. Not investing in professional headlight restoration or replacement can, in this case, lead to serious accidents, even if your vehicle is otherwise maintained to the highest possible road safety standard.

Why you Might need to Invest in Professional Headlight Repair

In the past (up until around the mid-1980’s) a car headlight casing would usually be made of acrylic plastic which was itself prone to shattering and fogging after prolonged exposure to the elements. It is important to remember, however, that even modern vehicles which use modern polycarbonate headlight houses will still require restoration occasionally. This is due to the fact that chemical reactions caused by the light from headlight bulbs themselves, (as well as numerous environmental factors), can lead to the misting and fogging of even specially coated polycarbonate headlight houses.

How Headlight Restoration Works
