How it All Began
The Clear Lights® concept was born many years ago out of our founder, Norm’s customers’ needs at his body shop in Delaware. Customers continually asked if he could help them make their headlights look better, but more importantly, help them to be able to see at night. Their high beams looked like low beams and they were having a terrible time seeing. Not only that, their car looked older and dirty, even after it was just washed and waxed. The only available help was to buy a new headlight assembly, but that could cost the customer anywhere from $200.00 to $1600.00 per headlight depending upon the make and model of their vehicle and additionally, they would have to pay to have it installed and aimed. Many attempts were made to polish the headlights to try to clear them up with very poor, temporary results. Then, along came headlight cleaning kits, and as they produced a little bit better results, it was no match to a brand new headlight. These results were also only temporary, lasting at most, a few months. So, on Norm went, experimenting with different ideas he had, getting better and better results until he got it just right!
As Clear Lights® became a company of it’s own, our customers started to ask for help with other cosmetic problems they had with their cars, namely faded, discolored black and gray trim that aged their vehicles. The traditional products available on the market were not up to Clear Lights® standards, and again, were only temporary. So off Norm went again to try to help his customers. Through experimentation, we have created a trim restoration that will last 3+ years.
For 14 years now, he has been offering his services to his customers and their referrals. Folks have been so happy with the results, that they bring in all of their vehicles, their children’s vehicles, tractor trailers, RVs, busses, and more. All of these years later, customers continue to be so pleased with how great their restorations look. Knowing how dangerous cloudy headlights are and how unsightly they can be on all types of vehicles, we wanted to do more than service just our local customers, we wanted to reach as many folks as possible to let them know that they had a choice. That they didn’t have to always drive with their high beams on at night just to still barely see, that their children could be safer day and night, and that they no longer had to just wish their headlights and trim looked better, they could affordably and effectively do something about it. Out of our desire to help drivers on a larger scale, and our immense desire to help others get satisfaction from owning their own business, we decided to offer training in the Clear Lights® techniques. This not only helps more folks be safe, it helps to create jobs and stimulate our economy. It gives people an opportunity to be in business for themselves and be in control of their own future.
