What is the best way to clean a cloudy headlight lens?

any tips?

 

i have SEVERAL times.. use the FINEST grit sandpaper you can find.. and wet sand it... make sure the water is just plain ol water.. but you have to sand it LIGHTLY or you will mess it up.. it will take some time.. after you get it done.. let it dry.. then put some clear laquer on it... and they will look like new.. if its done right. .they will look brand new

 

toothpaste and a damp cloth

 

WETSANDING:

Supplies:
Wet/dry sand paper 400, 600, 800, 1000, 1500, & 2000. If you can't find them all that’s okay. You can find them at any auto parts store. Get 1 or 2 sheets of each.
3M Rubbing Compound, it can be found at Kragen or any auto parts store in the auto paint section, by the sand paper. If not ask.

Instructions:
Start with the lowest grade sand paper (400, 600, 800....2000). Wet the sand paper before each use in a bucket of warm soapy water. Then start sanding headlight for about 3 to 4 mins. with each grid of sandpaper. Make sure the sand paper stays wet. Keep doing it until smooth...be patient. After done dry and your lights will be a little hazy/ cloudy..don't freak out. This is were the 3M rubbing compound comes in place. Follow the directions on the back of the bottle. Then it will look like new. Works great I highly recommend.

You may then want to try a product called LampGaurd to protect your lenses from getting scratched up again.

flitz and a buffer is supposed to work rather well

at walmart they sell 2000 grit sand paper buy that and wet sand your head lights for about 10 mins each then dry them off. next buy sumthing like mothers plastic polish and rub into the headlight. this will help get rid of some of the haze but you will have to put the polish on once a week.
