Headlights are blind: what you can do

by Pramith

There are various reasons why headlights are blind. But you can do something about it to improve your visibility

Why are headlights blind?

Headlights play a crucial role in road safety, especially when driving at night or in poor visibility conditions. But despite modern technologies, many drivers complain that their headlights go blind over time.

  • Headlights are often made of plastic, which becomes cloudy over time due to oxidation and dirt. This can impair the luminosity
  • In addition, UV rays or small stone chips can damage the outer layer of the headlights.
  • Last but not least, extreme weather conditions can affect the headlights. This can cause condensation to form, for example.
  • If you notice that the headlights are no longer emitting enough light and you can no longer see well, you should rectify the problem. Otherwise, you are not only endangering your own safety, but also that of other road users.

How to repair blind headlights

It is important to regularly check the functionality of the headlights and take appropriate measures if necessary:

  • In many cases, cloudy headlights are simply the result of old or defective bulbs. If this is the case for you, replace them with new ones. If you don’t want to change them yourself, a garage can help
  • An equally effective method is polishing. Special polishing agents and polishing discs are used to clean the outer layer of the headlights.
  • Alternatively, you can turn to professional car detailers. They have special techniques and products to restore the headlights to a high gloss.
  • After reconditioning, headlight covers or special protective films can protect the headlights from environmental influences and keep them shining for longer.
  • UV protective coatings can also be applied to the headlights to protect them from harmful UV rays and prevent premature clouding.
