Default How do you polish fogged headlight covers?

I have an '05 Honda Accord with fogged headlight covers. What do you guys recommend to polish them up so they look new and not "bead blasted" ?

Wet sand/polish them out. Really easy job.

If you already have a buffer, just grab some sand paper and get to work. I normally use 1500/3000 then polish, however you can get more aggressive if need be.

If you don't have that, but have a drill, check out the 3m Headlight restoration kit. Everything you need all in one. ~$25.

Or consult a shop. That will typically run $50-100+

I cleaned my CRV headlights with toothpaste Now it looks cleaner than the one that was originally cleaner.
