Default cloudy highbeams!

I just painted my highbeams yellow today and one side is a little foggy. What should I do? Should I wet sand? or should I polish it? please help

IS it like watery? Did you take them apart to paint them? if so, use silicon to seal around so water doesnt get in

I HIGHLY doubt he took them apart to paint the inside of the light yellow, if so i bet it looks like ****. But to get rids of hazing you'll need to wetsand and polish.

For those who have gave me ways on clearing the cloudyness, thank you very much, and for those who are commenting on how the higbeams look, STFU! I did not ask for any ones opinion on how it looks bc everyone has their own opinion, so keep yours to yourself
