Video tutorial

In this video, see how to restore the headlamps of the Opel Astra H: this system crystallises the opaque polycarbonate, returning it to transparency. The process occurs through the evaporation of a chemical substance like acetone, which is one of the components of polycarbonate.

The vapour emitted from the acetone initiates a process that crystallises the material, and it is not limited to simple polishing, making it much more durable. You can find this product on Amazon with code B09L1M1JL9, priced at £16.01, with free delivery for Prime customers.

The usage is very simple; after thoroughly cleaning the optical unit, spray the product slowly as shown in the video; you will visibly see the headlamp restoration in a wonderful way!
