Best tip I have for hand sanding headlights (I used when sanding "foggy" plastic)...
Start with the most corse grit and sand HORIZONTAL, then step down a grit and sand VERTICAL until the previous horizontal scratches are gone, step down and go vertical, step down go horizontal, etc. The reason I found this so handy is by changing directions you can easily see how much to sand with the finer grit to remove the scratches from the previous.
The other tip I just thought to mention is to avoid the temptation of skipping a grit....200 grit will eventually remove 80 grit scratches, but it will take longer and risk an "uneven" surface. Bottom line, use every grit and change directions after each and progress to the finest grit you can find. The results will be better than "professional" as hand sanding gives better control than any power tool.
