Our actual lens preparation and finishing process
We use seven different sanding grits on each of the two headlights. The progression matters: preparation is part of the restoration, not just a step before applying a shiny finish.
Our working materials include glass cleaner, microfiber wipes, lens-preparation wipes, UV-protectant clear-coat wipes, high-quality tape, polishing compound, and shop towels. The condition of the lenses determines the difficulty of the job.
