Here's what people are saying about us:

"MAUI Headlight Restoration did a phenomenal job on my Lexus RX 350. I love my SUV and it looks great but then you’d see the headlights and they looked awful. Andrew Upton worked diligently to get my headlights back to looking new. Very reasonable pricing. Very professional work. I could not be happier with the results. This option is a very reasonable fix for cloudy headlamps. The work done is definitely pro."

Can I clean my car's headlights with household items?

Many have posted YouTube videos showing how to clean car headlights with items from around the house. It doesn't take long to see that these DIY methods only result in subpar results. Some claim that using OFF! bug spray and toothpaste and a toothbrush can do the trick. In the videos, however, you'll see that the headlights are still far from restored and will inevitably "yellow" quickly, making the problem even worse. Headlight cleaning, like other auto detailing services such as tail light tinting, cannot be done well taking a shortcut.

What about a headlight restoration kit?

Headlight cleaning kits are seemingly the most logical option for restoring your headlights. They're cheap, show pictures of great results, and can be found at your local auto shop or Walmart. However, the truth is that these kits rarely produce satisfactory results as seen in the pictures. Unless you've had experience in buffing and polishing, you'll likely end up with visible scratches in your headlamp lens that are far from a clear finish. Even if you've had sanding experience, its easy to miss the hard to get places.

Why not buy new headlights for my car?

This is certainly the highest quality option for solving your headlight cleaning problem, but it only takes one Google search to see that is also the most expensive. Some people's headlamps easily cost several hundreds of dollars. So while it might make sense to buy new headlights for some cars, for most it will save money to have them restored.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost?

For complete headlight restoration of both headlights, we charge $80. If only one headlight is needed, we only charge $50. Additional travel fees may be added if located outside of our service area.

Why do headlights get yellow?

Headlight lenses "yellow" or oxidize because their UV clear coat from the factory has deteriorated and worn off. Factors such as prolonged sun exposure, lack of washing, and quality of the polycarbonate play into how quickly a headlight will oxidize. Unfortunately, replacing the UV coat on an oxidized set of headlights is expensive and hard to replicate. That's why having them restored and polished is the best way to preserve their clarity. Plus, we always follow up with our work by applying a UV clear coat sealant that offers a year of protection.

How long will my headlights stay clear?

Assuming minimal effort is exerted in keeping them clean, they should stay clear for at least a year. However, the answer to this question is not as simple as one might think. It depends on several variables such as the make of the car and how well it's cared for. But, rest assured, we use a headlight sealant that guarantees at least a year of protection, and many have been known to stay clear much longer thereafter.

Manufacturers use differing qualities of polycarbonate lenses for their cars, some higher quality and some lower quality. This will, in some capacity, play into how long your headlights will stay clear- but the most impactful variable is how well kept the car is. Applying headlight polish every couple months or so as well as a UV sealant or some kind of car wax will greatly prolong yellowing (Meguiar's PlastX is a great product for cleaning up slightly foggy headlights).

A good equation to keep in mind is sunlight + dirt from the environment + time = headlight yellowing and oxidation. If your car is garage kept and washed frequently, harmful UV rays from the sun and dirt will not contribute to the oxidation so quickly. On the other hand, a car that is rarely washed and left outside in the sun frequently will likely experience quicker yellowing and oxidation.

How can I prevent further headlight yellowing?

As with anything you're trying to preserve, it will take a little bit of work. By polishing your headlights with a headlight cleaner (such as Meguiar's PlastX) and following up with a wax coating or UV sealant (such as Chemical Guys JetSeal), you can dramatically slow down the oxidation process.

How does the cleaning process work?

One of our professional headlight restorers will begin by wet-sanding your headlights with varying grit levels. This removes the thin layer of yellowed oxidation that has formed. Then, they remove the smaller scratches by using a buffer and polishing compound. To provide an extra layer of protection, they finish up by adding a layer of wax to each headlight. Then, they'll clean up and be on their merry way!

How long does the process take?

Usually an hour or less, unless fog lights need cleaning, too.
