The Process

1

Inspect the lenses

Tom checks both headlights under direct light to assess the level of oxidation and hazing. This sets the starting point for the right sanding grit and polish combination.

2

Wet sand the oxidation away

The outer surface of each lens is wet sanded in stages, working through progressively finer grits to remove the dead, yellowed plastic layer without cutting too deep.

3

Machine polish to clarity

A polishing compound is worked across each lens by machine to remove any sanding marks and restore the optical clarity underneath.

4

Seal and protect

A UV-resistant sealant is applied to both lenses to shield the restored surface from the Perth sun and slow the return of oxidation.

5

Final check

Both headlights are inspected under different light angles to confirm the result is consistent and clear before Tom packs up and leaves.

Is This Right For You?

This service suits any Perth driver who has noticed their headlights looking cloudy, yellow or dull, especially on vehicles that sit in the sun day after day. If your HiLux, Ranger, CX-5 or everyday commuter is failing the vibe check at night, headlight restoration is the fix.

Common Questions About Headlight restoration

How long does headlight restoration take in Perth?

Most cars are done in 45 to 90 minutes depending on how far gone the lenses are. Tom carries everything needed, so there is no waiting around once he arrives at your driveway.

Will my headlights just go yellow again after restoration?

The UV sealant applied at the end significantly slows re-oxidation, but no sealant lasts forever, especially in Perth's UV conditions. How long it lasts depends on where your car is parked and how much direct sun exposure it gets day to day.

Is headlight restoration worth it compared to buying new headlights?

For most utes and SUVs in Perth, replacement headlights can cost several hundred dollars or more per side. Restoration brings the existing lenses back to clear at a fraction of that cost, provided the damage is surface oxidation rather than internal cracking or deep physical damage.

Do I need to be home while Wonder Detail works on my car?

Not necessarily. As long as Tom has access to the vehicle and somewhere safe to work, you do not need to stand over him the whole time. Most customers drop the keys and go about their day.

What if only one headlight looks bad?

Tom restores both headlights in every visit, even if one looks worse than the other. Doing both means they match, and the clearer one is already protected before it catches up to the worse side.
