About this deal

It makes any car look scruffy even if the paintwork is shiny. It will also make the headlamps less effective, dazzle other motorists and could even be an MoT failure. You apply a special fluid and then rub hard, and the yellowed plastic eventually comes off the lens. This leaves a smooth finish, but the surface is still dull and milky. To get rid of this, the kit includes a spray-on lacquer which protects and adds the shine. It didn’t do a great job though, leaving a distinct haze. T-Cut Headlight Restoration Kit

If you are confident with a drill and have badly-tarnished lenses, we’d recommend the Holts kit – it’s great value and gave a decent result. Read more They looked pretty good when I finished. I stupidly didn't have my phone so I don't have good before and after photos.The QUIXX kit looks as though it might be hard work, as it relies on you using elbow grease and tiny bits of sandpaper.

If you are browsing the internet looking for the best way to restore your lights, there are plenty of people who will swear that you don’t need to waste money on these fancy kits and all you need to do is raid the bathroom and get some whitening toothpaste and a cloth. The Armor All wipes were a real surprise and worked so well, we felt a bit daft for spending so much time struggling with the less-effective headlamp restorers. The price means you can afford to buy two and make sure you don’t have to skimp or rush too.

Simple two-step process: Step 1 wipe cleans and removes the oxidation x 2pcs, Step 2 sealant wipe protects the headlight x 1pc A car's headlights grow yellow or cloudy over time due to the breakdown of the protective layer on the lens. That contamination can cause your headlights to be dimmer—and therefore less safe. One way to clean them up is by using headlight cleaning kits, which have been around for decades. They remove the yellow, damaged layer and replace it with a new—albeit temporary—protective coating. The long-term solution is to replace the entire headlight housing, which can be expensive.

It works to the extent that yellowing is removed but on test headlights, once the yellowing is removed, it doesn't restore at all any of the oxidised surface or heavier clouding.
