Works pretty good, though you can do the same by assembling the components yourself, at higher total cost but higher # of restorations:$.
If you don't have a lot of scratches and dings, just want to remove the haze, try plastic polish alone then if that doesn't work, step up to a more abrasive medium.
Used this last Monday to restore my SUV's headlight lens to almost new condition. Removed the yellow discoloration and all the scratches.
Headlights? oh, I see.. you mean actual headlights.. got it.
gonna put lampgards (thick plastic protectors)on the headlights to keep them from yellowing again after using this.
I tried this product and the wet-sand method. Keep in mind once the polish wears off they will become dull again. All you're really doing here is filling the cracks with temporary compound. The wet-sand method works better if lights are really coated and there is a nice diy on youtube.
I use the Mothers Brand and it works pretty well. I found that the 3M Kit will only do your headlights once or maybe twice. The Mothers Kit has given me at least 3 or 4 uses so far and it isnt gone yet.

I got a larger kit, forget the brand, with 4 different grits of compound and 2 pads. Along with wet sanding having 4 grits makes the process go fast and can be adjusted to the severity of the problem. Will do many repairs and on a per job basis less expensive than this.
People this is just expensive polish. You can get better results using high grit sandpaper, toothpaste (or rubbing compound, scratch remover, whatever polish you already have) and some elbow grease. Here's instructions:

Also don't waste your money on RainX and use car wax on the windshield... it lasts much longer.
