I decided that I wanted to clean up my headlights so I took a trip to autozone to look at their headlight restoring selection. I found the 3M headlight restoring kit , and Meguiars Plastix. They had some other items but I narrowed it down to those two. The Meguiars Plastix kit looks like its for for minimally damaged headlights. The 3M kit came with 500 and 800 grit sandpaper,a 3000 grit buffing pad, polish applicator and the drill attachment and polish. I followed the directions and I came out with this. Im pleased with the outcome now I cant wait to see how long it lasts.
*UPDATE*
The restoration lasted about six months. The materials that 3M provides you with should allow you to do the procedure atleast two more times so it buys you time until you are ready for the new headlights. The price has been increasing like everything else and it averages in the area of $25. Still not bad when looking at the price of new headlights.
