We will train up to four of your personnel.  Our process is not difficult but it does require our thorough training program to learn it.  In fact, once you understand the process, it is very easy to restore even the most deteriorated headlight.

One of our skilled headlight restoration specialists will visit your dealership, facility, shop, or home.  The standard training schedule is three full (eight hour) days with your personnel.  If you feel that you or your people need additional training days, we will remain for up to two extra days for an additional fee.  See fees below.  This should be more than enough time to learn our system, but if more training time is needed, we will make every effort to arrange for the additional time. 

Dealership: You will be asked to arrange to have vehicles available, which need headlight restoration.  You may sell the service to your customers, offer it for free, find cars on your lot that need restoration, or find cars in the used car department.  Over the three training days, it is better to have a variety of vehicles to work on.

Individual or Shop:  You can arrange to have vehicles to work on or we can visit car dealerships and offer the headlight restoration service to their customers.  We can also visit used car lots or departments and offer the restoration service for free or at a reduced cost.  The goal is to work on a variety of vehicles.

Over the three days, our restoration specialist will demonstrate the process many times.  Your personnel will have an opportunity to watch and then practice on the subject vehicles.  Repetition is the fastest and most effective way to train people and our goal is to work on as many cars as possible.  You will learn proper sanding techniques, when to use each grade of sandpaper, how to determine if the headlight is ready to spray, how to mix the chemicals, proper taping and masking procedures, adjusting the spray gun, correct spray techniques, quality control, fixing mistakes, unwrapping the vehicle, and cleanup procedures.

You will receive a list of tools and materials that you will need to purchase to operate this business.  The tools and materials should cost less than $400 including a small compressor.  You may have many of the tools already.  We will be using a professional grade automotive chemical to restore the headlights.  Prior to our visit, we will do research and determine where you can purchase this chemical in your local area.  On the third day of training, we will visit this retailer together and make your first purchase.  When the training is completed, you will know where to go to buy all of your materials.  On the last (third) day of training, you or your technicians will restore the headlights of any subject vehicles that we can acquire.  Our personnel will supervise and fix any glitches in the restorers technique.  Again, if additional training days are needed, we can accommodate you.

What we provide to you

Along with the hands-on training, we will provide a complete list of all of the materials and tools that you will need to correctly perform headlight restoration services.  You will see all of the tools and materials that we bring to your facility and this will make it easy to understand what is needed and how it is used.  We will provide the materials (sandpaper, tape, etc) and the chemicals to restore the headlights on all of the training vehicles.  The most important thing that we provide is the name and part number of the exact chemical that you will purchase from your local retailer.  This product is the heart and soul of what we do and you will be able to purchase it directly in your area.

How do we get started

It is logical to assume that if you have not seen one of our people perform the headlight restoration service, then you would (and should) be unwilling to pay a large fee to be trained on our process.  Also, since you are likely quite a long distance from our home area, it would be difficult to arrange for a quick demonstration.  Here is how we handle this.  After our phone contact and much conversation, if you would like a demonstration, we will send a restoration specialist to your area.  The specialist will visit with the ability to remain in your area and begin the training process if you would like to move forward after the demonstration.  There is, of course, a fee for this demonstration visit.  If you do not wish to have the specialist remain and begin the training process, we will shake hands and move onto our next customer.  If you are impressed, and see the value of our training, we will apply the demonstration fee to the training tuition and start the training.  The demonstration fee is in place to cover the expense of traveling to your area from ours.

Our Fees

We did some research and found that franchise fees to start a headlight restoration business generally range from $7,500 to $15,000.  This does include training, but in most cases, the new franchisee is required to purchase their chemicals and supplies from the franchisor, and there are also monthly fees or 'per car' fees.

We are not a franchise.  Once you pay the training tuition, you will never have to pay us another dime (unless you want to).  In fact, we take the extra step to show you which materials and tools to buy, and we show you where you can buy them.  We want you to succeed and we don't want any more of your money when you do.  Ok, here are the numbers.

Demonstration Fee  -          $650  (applied to the Training Tuition if we move forward)
Training Tuition  -                 $4,300  (training for three days / up to four people trained)
Additional Training Days -  $250  per day  (up to two days)
Further additional training days - $300 per day   (maximum 3 days)
Return visit after training is complete - $650 for the first day, $350 each additional day (max.5 days)
Telephone support following training - Free / Unlimited

When are fees due

The demonstration fee is due prior to us visiting your area.  You may pay with a credit card on the bottom of this page through our PayPal account, or you may send us a check.  We will schedule our visit and potential training schedule once the funds clear.

After our demonstration at your facility, if you would like to move forward with the training, we will request the balance of the training tuition before training begins.  This can be in the form of a company check (new car dealership only), a cashiers check, or you may pay on this page of our website through our PayPal account.  We apologize for any inconvenience, but we must be strict about when fees are required.  Once the training takes place, it cannot be taken back if there are insufficient funds.

Additional facts

Training Schedule - We will arrive in your area on a Sunday evening.  After an overnight stay in a hotel (at our expense), our specialist will come to your facility on Monday morning at 8:00am to begin the demonstration.   If you want us to continue with the training after the demonstration, it will begin immediately following the demonstration and tuition payment.  Our training work day is up to eight hours including a one hour lunch break. 

Subject Cars - There is no magic formula to find cars that need this service.  Many need it. Since we cannot pre arrange test cars in your area from our home area, it is important that you locate and arrange for subject cars prior to our arrival.  We will explain several easy methods to locate cars to train with.  Please understand that training cannot be postponed or extended at our expense if you do not provide subject vehicles.  We will assist in every way possible (we are successful at this), but it is ultimately your responsibility.

The Chemical - Our chemical is a clear coat mixed with the appropriate activator.  After much early research and testing, the correct product was approved and we have used it on all of our customers vehicles.  We have had 100% success with this product.  It contains components which allow it to bond to the polycarbonate headlight lens and essentially create a new lens.  It also contains UV protection so the headlights will not deteriorate again.  We offer a lifetime guarantee to our customers, but you may offer any guarantee that you wish.  This is a product that you will be able to buy at a local retailer.  We do not control your purchase in any way.  You will learn the product name and number on the third day of training.

The Training Method - We will demonstrate the process as many times as necessary, but you or your personnel will only learn from doing it themselves.  We will encourage your people to jump right in after one or two demonstrations.  Practice makes perfect.

Tools and Supplies - Our specialist will arrive with their own tools and supplies to complete the training.  We will also have available for purchase, some of the tools and materials that you will need to start your business.  You are under no obligation to purchase any tools or materials from us.  The reason that we have them available for sale is to make it easy to get you started faster if that is what you want to do.  We will be happy to tell you where to buy everything that you need.

Rain - Our headlight restoration method requires a relatively clean environment.  We don't need a 'spray booth', in fact, we usually work outside.  A covered environment is preferred but not required.  If we do not have a covered work area in your facility, we will be at the mercy of the weather.  Specifically, rain.  If it rains during training, we cannot spray the headlights if we are outside.  We do bring and use a portable tent but this is only slightly helpful during rain.  We will make every effort to accommodate your training if it rains but if you have a covered environment, we would appreciate using it.

Refund Policy - The bottom line is ... we don't have one.  We do, however, understand our customers need for a guarantee of the results of our product / service.  This is the reason that we will do a demonstration without your need to commit to the training.  Our commitment to you is that we will demonstrate our headlight restoration service at your facility on as many as three cars before you are required to decide on the training.  During that time you should observe the process and speak to the specialist in depth about their plans for training.  If you do not feel comfortable with the process, our specialist, or their ability to train you or your people, then you are under no obligation to pay for or begin the training.  No pressure.  If you do decide to begin the training, however, we should move quickly  to get started because our (eight hour day) clock starts when we arrive at your facility.
