Something that's bugged me for the last few years was the appearance of the headlights on my QPV; they'd let down an otherwise gorgeous front-end and the time had come for me to do something about it... I'd had a go several times myself with off-the-shelf kits (Meguiars Headlight Restoration Plus) but with sub-standard results. Following an article I read in a magazine a few years back and having looked at some reviews online, I opted to give Chris Vagg at Superglass a go - based fairly local to me in Epsom, Surrey (https://headlightrestorationinepsom.co.uk/).
The results, as you can see below, are very impressive - Superglass is a US-headquartered franchise who own the IP of the compounds/chemicals of the substances used. Chris came to my driveway and worked on these for around 3 hours, and the sealing finish comes with a 2 year guarantee. At a cost of £50 + VAT per headlamp it's a mere drop in the ocean relative to the price of replacing the entire headlamp. Fortunately for me, the lens clouding was solely on the outside - I couldn't comment on how you'd go about taking the unit apart and dealing with internal defects. Chris is a brilliant chap and I'd highly recommend him for anyone else considering restoration of their headlamps.
