Our headlight restoration process
Mask
Paint and trim around the lights are taped to protect them.
Sand
The yellowed, oxidised layer is wet-sanded off in stages, coarse to fine.
Polish
A machine polish brings the lens back to clear.
Protect
A UV-resistant coating goes on, because bare polished plastic yellows again quickly in the sun.

Headlight Restoration options compared
DIY kits and toothpaste tricks can make lenses look better for a few weeks, but without a proper UV protective layer the plastic oxidises again quickly, often worse. Replacement headlights cost far more per side on most modern cars. Restoration with a protective coating is the middle ground. Damage inside the lens, such as moisture or a burnt reflector, cannot be fixed from the outside.
Headlight Restoration for Wagga conditions
Polycarbonate headlights break down fastest under strong UV, and Wagga summers are hard on them, especially on cars that live outside. If you drive dark country roads to Junee, Coolamon or out to the farm, clear lenses make a real difference.
Cars that came out of the factory with plastic lenses in the 2000s and 2010s, such as VE and VF Commodores, Falcons, Corollas and early Hiluxes, are now old enough that most of them have gone cloudy. Restoring both lenses is one of the cheapest ways to make an older car look younger before you sell it, and it pairs well with a paint correction or Full Detail on the same visit.
Keeping restored headlights clear
Wash the lenses with the rest of the car using a car shampoo, not harsh degreasers or solvents. Park in shade or under cover where you can. If the car is ceramic coated, the lenses can be coated too for extra protection; ask when you book.

Headlight Restoration FAQs
How much is headlight restoration in Wagga?
$189 for a pair, including GST, for any vehicle size.
How long does restored headlight clarity last?
It depends on sun exposure and care. The UV protective coating is what keeps them clear; lenses restored without one tend to go yellow again quickly.
Will it help my car pass a rego inspection?
Clear lenses help light output, but rego checks look at more than lens clarity. If an inspector has flagged your lights, ask them what they need.
Can you fix moisture inside the headlight?
No. Restoration fixes the outside of the lens. Moisture or damage inside usually means resealing or replacing the unit.
