Lens restoration / DFW

Headlight restoration in DFW. Bring clarity back to the lens surface.

Auto Glass General addresses exterior haze, yellowing, and oxidation on qualifying headlight lenses, then applies a protective finish to help slow renewed UV exposure.

Restoration candidates

Start with the source of the haze.

  • Haze and surface oxidation
  • Yellowed polycarbonate lenses
  • Dull exterior lens surfaces
  • Headlights without cracked housings

Controlled surface correction removes the weathered outer layer from a qualifying lens.

What restoration addresses

Exterior oxidation—not every headlight problem.

Texas sun and road exposure can leave polycarbonate headlights dull and yellow. Restoration focuses on the exterior lens surface, not bulbs, wiring, internal moisture, or a damaged housing.

01

Inspect

We confirm the cloudiness is on the exterior surface and look for damage restoration cannot address.

02

Correct

The oxidized layer is carefully worked back through staged surface correction and polishing.

03

Protect

A protective finish is applied to help slow renewed oxidation from UV exposure.

Before you request a quote

Surface restoration and assembly repair solve different problems.

01

Exterior haze

Often a restoration candidate when the lens surface is oxidized but the housing is otherwise sound.

02

Cracks or broken tabs

Physical housing damage may call for headlight assembly repair or replacement rather than surface restoration.

03

Moisture inside

Condensation behind the lens points to a sealing or housing issue that exterior restoration will not fix.

Documented clarity

One documented comparison, clearly labeled.

This licensed composite documents the same lens before and after exterior restoration. Results vary with lens condition; cracks, failed seals, internal moisture, damaged reflectors, bulbs, and wiring are different problems.
