PREPARATION:
Start with a clean, dry headlight lens. Pick a location that is away from direct sunlight and is above freezing
(32°F). In order to protect the vehicle's paint or finish surrounding the lens, you may choose to apply painter's
masking tape (not supplied) to mask off the car surfaces adjacent to the headlight lens being restored. If
surfaces to be taped are chipped, weathered, or are not the original factory finish, tape may damage the finish.
NOTE: The compounds used in this restoration kit are specially formulated to not harm your vehicle's paint or
finish, but the clear coat may leave a drip streak if an excessive amount is used during Step 3. If tape is used,
check for adhesion throughtout the sanding process. Dry and reapply tape if needed.
PLEASE READ INSTRUCTIONS COMPLETELY PRIOR TO STARTING THE RESTORATION PROCESS.

The process of restoring your headlight lenses involves removing the damaged material and applying a new
layer of UV protection. Follow these instructions and don’t worry if you notice that the headlight lens is still a bit
hazy throughout the process. Only after the UV Block Clear Coat is applied will the headlight lens return to its
like-new clarity.
You will need: • Clean rinse water (hose, spray bottle, or bucket) and paper towels or absorbent
cloths. You may want tape (painter’s masking or electrical) to mask painted finish
surrounding lens.
• Everything else is provided for you in this kit.

Waterproof Premium Sandpaper

Applicator and Polish Towels
Vinyl Glove
Check to be sure all moisture is removed from all areas on and around the headlight lens.
Find the bottle marked UV Block Clear Coat (Step 3
), the glove, and the blue towel
provided in the kit. Put the vinyl glove on your application hand. Thoroughly soak the entire
folded edge of the blue towel with UV Block Clear Coat until the liquid extends 1/2” from
folded edge. NOTE: The thicker the coating the better. Take care to thoroughly soak the
entire folded edge of the blue applicator and to re-soak often to a ensure uniform thickness
across the headlight surface. Starting in one of the upper corners of the headlight lens,
wipe the moistened edge of the towel across the lens from side to side in a smooth and
continuous motion. Working from the top down, repeat the same motion, slightly
overlapping the previously stroke. Remoisten the towel edge with the UV Block Clear Coat
often to ensure a thick application. For best results, move in a continuous motion across
the headlight lens on each stroke, applying only once, and do not repeat or re-apply to
treated areas. If you missed a spot then quickly reapply only to that area.
Repeat procedure on 2nd headlight.
