How It Works

yellow-car-dark

OEM Headlights are made of polycarbonate which has the strength and light weight needed for today’s cars. To keep clean and clear polycarbonate headlights need a coating to protect it from the sun and rain. Over time the factory coating gives into the natural elements and becomes cloudy. Dvelup’s Headlight Restoration System repairs and replaces this damaged coating.

COMPARING TO OTHER TYPES OF REPAIR

Headlight restoration products are in several forms today. Below are some you may have seen.

    • 1. Polish - Removes yellow cloudy layer but offers no real protection so deterioration
      may return in several weeks.
    • 2. Spray-on - Offers protection but requires masking, allows debris to get in the coating,
      and is not easily corrected if a problem arises. Some spray-on coatings require expensive UV curing lamps. Non UV cure spray-on coatings contain harsh solvents that weaken the polycarbonate and may delaminate later.
    • 3. Dvelup’s Headlight Restoration System has a solvent borne wipe-on coating with automotive grade UV blockers. It does not contain solvents that weaken polycarbonate. Its clarity and shine surpasses competing water based
      coatings. It is easier to remove corrosion with our yellow extracting cleaner.
      No masking, no polishing, and easy correction of mistakes.

How To Apply

1. REMOVE CORROSION: Spray on Yellow X and follow the sanding steps. Yellow X extracts grime and makes corrosion removal easier.
2. PREP SURFACE: Spray on Yellow X and rinse with water. Spray on Yellow X again, rinse with water and wipe dry with clean paper towel. Yellow X strips away impurities and acts as a adhesion promoter for the best Lens Sealer bond.
3. APPLY HL LENS COAT: Lens Coat is applied with a supplied applicator towel. Saturate one half of the towel using medium pressure, start at the top and wipe from one side of the lens to the other, working your way down. Wipe lines will disappear within seconds. The lens will now be crystal clear.

NOTE: Refer to the Headlight Restoration Instruction Sheet for full details.

Use In Business

PUBLIC RETAIL

Owning a vehicle with faded headlights is frustrating and a real problem since it's hard to see at night without adequate lighting. Some may not be aware that their vehicle may not meet the minimum light distance requirements by law which can subject them to traffic tickets. Use mailers, flyers, advertising in the Yellow Pages. Carry fliers and business cards to leave on the car with an estimate written on the back. This will save time in making appointments for estimates. Another avenue is to partner with your local detail shop/car wash to offer your service during certain times of the week.

Potential Profits:
Do some trial rates and see what your local market excepts. You may find 50% or higher margins over Dealership pricing.

AUTO DEALERSHIPS, AUCTIONS, RENTAL CAR AGENCIES

Most used cars departments hire outside vendors to make cosmetic repairs on their cars. Do a free demo to get there business. First restore one lens and then let the manager see the difference between both headlights, we're sure you will win their business then of course restore the other lens. An easier demo would be to prepare a demo light. Get a weathered light from a scrap yard or body shop, tape off half the lens and restore the other half allowing you to show the manager your work without him ever leaving his chair. Schedule weekly visits with used car managers to walk their used car lot inventory to check for repairs, be sure to write down car model, vin, stock number and color. Contact manager for approval.

Many Dealer Auctions offer services to buyers before and after purchases. Offer your service to the Recon Manager on a weekly bases. If you get the work remember to schedule additional time for auction days.

Offer your service to detail shops, dealership service drive, body shops, lube shops, etc. Make arrangements for them to sell your service at a specific price point above your charge to them.
