Hi Guys,
I have a question regarding headlight refinishing. I have been thinking about adding this to my business (maintenance contractor). I live in an area with lots of high value vehicles and noticed many had great exterior maintenance except for ugly corroded and yellow headlights. I bought 4 different kits from various suppliers to compare results but have not had the time to test them yet. I also have a friend/customer that was the head pilot for a fleet of corporate jets and will tap his brains soon on that market (windscreens).
I have also noticed that the smaller used car dealers have rows of potential work just waiting to be fixed. When you throw in the police, fire, and trucking industry there seems to be unlimited possibilities. The other angle is it's all very "GREEN" which seems to be the Holy Grail of business these days.
Question one is regarding lumen output of headlights. It seems that a slam dunk contract could be had by demonstrating to a corporate, municipal, or even individual that their lights do not meet minimum federal or local code.
Is there an instrument to measure light output cheaply, quickly, and convincingly?
Thanks for any input,
J
