Headlight restoration in Kenya

Restore eligible headlight surfaces through a trained specialist service.

A CONCRETE EXAMPLE · ILLUSTRATIVE

Fictional sample order: Assess and, if suitable, restore exterior surface clarity on two plastic headlamp lenses using a specific manufacturer-supported kit and competent operator. Exclude cracked lenses, internal condensation, reflector damage, electrical/aim faults and roadworthiness certification. Optical appearance is not a guarantee of correct beam performance.

Who is the first customer?

Motorists with cloudy light lenses.

Test the offer

Inspect a lens and explain when replacement or specialist diagnosis is preferable.
