I've polished mine no problem with this kit https://www.eurocarparts.com/p/holt...CbW1BBDZE-DgaDvTy7o56QiWmdgbc8YBoCfUgQAvD_BwE
Now I just give a quick polish every now and then with turtle wax headlight sealant cleaner when washing the car. The kit comes with a polishing adapter for a cordless drill. I've done a few headlights for friends aswell. As Tony says mask area to reduce mess and if using the drill attachment a sheet over the bonnet or engine is a good idea. I had my bonnet open the first time I did mine and spent more time cleaning up the mess I made than polishing the headlights 🤣

Polishing headlights is OK but they always go cloudy again eventually.

Take the car or the headlights to a bodyshop so they can be rubbed down with 800 grit and clear coat lacquered. Most lacquer used to paint cars is UV resistant and it gives a fantastic finish that lasts pretty much forever.

That sounds like a good idea.

I had the same issue - had mine polished and then had PPF applied - 2 years later and they still look crystal clear.

I see PPF on Amazon. Is it just clear wrap that you could do at home? They do look good.

Yes you can do at home - though mine was in for having the entire front done so I had the company do the headlamps for me while they were doing the rest.
