Wipe New Headlight Restore

Wipe New Headlight Restore is the second Wipe New product to grace the airwaves over the past couple years. The original Wipe New was meant to work as a detailing product, while this product focuses solely on headlights. The original Wipe New also said you could clean headlights with it, but it did contain the same materials as this one.

The product website is wipenewheadlightrestore.com. It has had a relatively long marketing campaign for an As Seen on TV product, and continues to be advertised in late 2015.

Cost & Availability

If you purchase from the product website, it will cost $9.99 plus $6.99 shipping, for a total cost of $16.98. You can add another kit to your order for $6.99 shipping.

WipeNew Headlight Restore is readily available in stores for about $10. We spotted it at Walmart for about $8.50.

The As Seen on TV minds behind Wipe New Headlight Restore would have us believe that this product can clean headlights in seconds and continue to work long after application. So what do consumers say?

Because it has been on the market for about a year, finding consumer reviews is a simple task. On Amazon, there are nearly 700 reviews as of this writing, giving it a solid 4.2-star rating. The general consensus is that the product works, but perhaps not quite as advertised in the minds of some readers.

There is some preparation involved. First you wash the headlights, then you scrub them with the scrubbing square, and turn that over to polish. Most customers feel that it works, but there is little agreement as to how much time and effort it takes to achieve those results.

While the advertising implies that the chemical makeup of WipeNew Headlight is where the magic lies, most of the effectiveness is in the grit of the included polishing pad, and that pad is a one-time use product. Some readers have stated that it took them significantly longer to scrub the headlights to a clear state than expected. Others have said it was a quick process which only took minutes. It would appear that your mileage may vary, and factors such as how much residue exists on your headlights will affect your opinion.

History

You may also want to investigate other options by popular competitors in order to get the best deal.
