        LONDON, Ont. – May 1, 2009 – After an unusually long winter, everyone is looking forward to longer summer days. With more people enjoying the warm weather, especially children playing outdoors into the evenings, there is an increased need for road  safety. Hazed or cloudy plastic headlights can reduce visibility when driving making it very difficult to see, especially at night and during inclement summer weather,  like thunderstorms and fog.   

        Now, drivers can restore plastic headlight lenses to like-new clarity with the new  3M Headlight Lens Restoration System, an easy-to-use solution for removing the yellowing  and hazing that reduces headlight performance and visibility.   

        While plastic headlights help reduce vehicle weight and withstand impact, oxidation  and sunlight can dull the surface, turn it yellow or leave it cloudy and scratched.  This means the light from the headlights is diffused and not focused correctly on  the roadway, which limits visibility especially at night. Not only can the driver  of the vehicle not see the roadway as clearly, the vehicle is also less visible   to other cars.   

        With the average age of vehicles on Canadian streets today nearing eight years, the safety problem is growing.   

        3M, trusted leader in automotive products, has a new solution in its 3M Car Care  line that allows car owners to quickly and cost-effectively eliminate this problem. The new 3M Headlight Lens Restoration System includes everything the consumer needs  to remove the oxidation and restore the headlight lens to its clear condition. It  is also cost effective. Compared to having the lens commercially repaired for approximately  $75 or replaced for up to $1,500, the 3M Headlight Lens Restoration System costs less than $30. The 

 said Scott Blanchard, marketing operations manager, 3M car care. "We took our time-tested  process used by automotive experts and our professional products to create a simple  solution that delivers professional results at a very affordable price."
