Clear Guard ATV
Headlight Protection Kit
Here's a product every ATV owner should take a look at,
Clear Guard's ATV Headlight Protection kits. Have you ever
had to replace a Headlight on your ATV? If you have than
you all ready know it will set you back about $200 ouch!
Clear Guard Headlight Protection Kits are designed to
eliminate headlight lens breakage and scratches. They
are manufactured from
a
press polished thermoplastic vinyl material treated with a
durable highly polished finish to form a flexible
optically clear sheet. This material offers scratch
resistance, dimensional stability, excellent clarity and
weathering capabilities, as well as good RF resistance.
Coupled with the strongest 3M adhesive available, each
meets or exceeds the material requirements of the
Department of Transportation (DOT) and the American
National Standards (ANSI) Code for safety.
Instructions
IMPORTANT:
Please read the instructions thoroughly before beginning
application.
1)
Prepare a alcohol/water solution using rubbing alcohol
(Isopropyl Alcohol) using 1 part alcohol to 1 part
water.
2)
Thoroughly
clean the surface of the lenses using the alcohol
solution. NOTE: The lenses MUST be free of all grease,
wax, tar, or dirt. Dry with a lint-free cloth.
3)
Before
removing any of the paper backing from the light shields,
test each piece to assure proper location and fit.
4)
For best results the lenses and the shields should be warm
to the touch. This can be accomplished by turning on the
lights to warm the lenses or using a blow dryer.
5)
Wet your hands and fingers with the alcohol solution and
make sure they stay wet thorough out the installation
process. WARNING:
Handling the shield with dry fingers will leave permanent
visible marks on the adhesive.
6)
Carefully remove the backing from the adhesive side of the
shield, spray the adhesive with the alcohol solution, and
apply the shield to the lens and align with the outer
edges of the light.
7)
IMPORTANT: To avoid excess moisture from being
trapped under the shield, be sure to squeegee the entire
shield several times from the center out using
increasingly firm strokes. Use the blow dryer as necessary
to evaporate the excess solution and keep the shield warm
and pliable.
NOTE:
The shields may have a slightly hazy appearance after the
initial installation. This is caused by residual moisture
being trapped under the shield and is normal. The moisture
will dissipate over a time depending on the ambient
temperature and humidity levels.
PROS:
-All kits include a squeegee.
-All kits are, computer designed and die cut.
-Affordable (prices range from $19.99 and up).
- Headlight Kits have been tested to withstand
impacts of 120 MPH (tested using 1" diameter rock).

-And best of all! MANUFACTURED IN THE UNITED STATES.
CONS:
NONE!
Conclusion:
Every Clear Guard kit that we've installed fit perfectly. Affordably priced,
Clear Guard Headlight Protection kits are a high quality
way to protect the stock
unit. After testing the product on the Project ATV's
under the
extreme conditions in the Hot Arizona sun, we think Clear Guard has
a winner with this product!
