You can see what I did on this thread:

I liked the Sylvania kit because of the UV coat they include in the kit. I finished my project in February or March, and I have not yet seen any signs of yellowing. However, I need to note that Particleweave has been on the mark with his advice, so I would not ignore the possibility of yellowing.

I think some folks have tried automotive clear coat as a UV inhibitor, but I do not have any personal experience with that or the toothpaste. The set of headlights I had were in poor condition, so Skoosh1970's method may work well on a pair that are in less need of attention.
