Headlight restoration in Bon Secour

Mobile service in Bon Secour

If there is one part of our service area where headlight oxidation shows up early, it is here. Vehicles that live this close to open water get constant salt-laden humidity, and salt accelerates the breakdown of the factory UV hard coat that protects the polycarbonate underneath. Boat trailers and working vehicles around the bayous take it worst of all.

That is also why the UV sealing stage matters more here than almost anywhere else. Sanding and polishing a lens back to clear is straightforward; keeping it clear through a Bon Secour summer is the part that separates a real restoration from a kit.

What the job involves

Every restoration is the same multi-stage process regardless of where you are: mask the surrounding paint and trim, wet sand through progressive grits to cut away the failed factory coating and the oxidized plastic underneath, machine polish the lens back to optical clarity, then seal it with a UV-stable clear coat so it stays that way.

We work outside the vehicle, so you keep your keys and carry on with whatever you are doing. Most cars and trucks take about an hour. RVs and campers take longer, and we will say so when we quote.

Getting a quote

Text a clear photo of your lenses to (251) 321-5430 with your vehicle’s year, make and model, and your location in Bon Secour. You will get a real number back, free, with no obligation. We quote from photos because lens condition varies enormously and we would rather give you an accurate figure than a range that means nothing.
