![]() Bozo,
Actually I don't. I have 2 other services I do for dealerships regularly & headlights were a natural fir so I started doing them. While dealership work is great I would like to "set up shop" for some 'cash today', which is why I'm interested in your marketing approach. I know the products you use but you don't mention a UV sealer, do you use one? Thanx. And thanx Gordon too. |

![]() The marketing is actually the bulk of the manual, if a digital product can be said to have bulk.
Cleaning headlights is a simple process, and though the cleaning is covered throughly in the manual, getting customers is the more important part of the business. I don't see how we could separate the manual. Buy the manual, and you'll have it paid out on your first couple of jobs away from the dealerships. The very idea of a UV sealer for headlights is foreign to me. The only thing I have experience with is protecting aircraft fabric from UV. In that application a clear dope is mixed with a heavy concentration of powdered aluminum, and that coating is then covered with at least two coats of paint. Even then the UV eventually eats the fabric. I doubt that type of covering would be acceptable on a headlight, and anything less than that would have to be magic. The factory protective layer is what gets the UV damage. I remove that layer, leaving nothing to get further damage. Note the turn signal lenses on some years of Ford trucks. There will be a beautiful clear turn signal lens right beside a completely fogged over headlight lens. Why? The turn signal lens didn't warrant a 'protective' layer, and it's the layer that gets damaged. The whole business of headlight cleaning exists because the headlight manufactures have screwed up with their protective layers. |
