UV exposure causes the plastic lens on most headlights to oxidize and yellow over time, which is a completely different problem than a dirty lens and needs an actual restoration process, not just cleaning.
Boat trailers, marina parking, and salt air around Shelter Island all add up to faster exterior wear on vehicles than most owners realize, which is exactly why regular wash-and-wax service matters more here than in a typical suburban town.
We sand down the oxidized outer layer in stages with increasingly fine grit, polish the lens to restore clarity, then apply a UV-protective sealant to slow future yellowing.
Older vehicles with headlights that have never been restored sometimes show early plastic pitting underneath the yellowing, which restoration improves but may not fully eliminate.
