Due to the action of the sun and often also washing detergents, the vehicle's headlights tend to become cloudy: if they are not excessively yellowed and crystallised, a very simple method to restore their shine and transparency is to polish them with specific products.

In fact, there are many kits available on the market for headlight regeneration, and the operation essentially involves sanding the headlight with very fine sandpaper (this operation must be done wet as the friction could overheat the surface, damaging it); once sanded, the surface becomes uniformly dull, and at this point, it is necessary to polish with the appropriate wax to give it new shine.
