Sanded with those until I didn't see any deep scratches anymore. Then used the step pads of a Turtle Wax Headlight Restorer Kit for a while. Finally used the polishing stuff that comes with that kit on a buffer with modest speed. Used spare amounts of polisher and just kept at it until happy with the result. The whole process is about 2 to 3 hours per headlight.
Btw, I see that Richard's rubber seals are as much turned into mush as mine. Any way to fix this?
Bbtw, what do you use for UV protection?

Opti-lens is good stuff...any clear coat with a good UV rating is better than nothing, though.
