how to clean headlight lens

[kpm]

I like Meguires Plastix polish for the headlight covers on my Boxster. Also does a good job on the plastic rear window too.

I used Meguiares on my older DD and it worked. I bought the headlight restoration kit and it came with a sponge that attached to my drill.
My headlamp was completely yellow, it almost made no difference driving with headlamp on or off before. It restored my headlamp to 90% new.
The main issue is, they start to be yellowing again this year (after 1 year) and I have to re-do the whole process again.

I tried the 3M kit with similar results on my '99 New Beetle. It did work but shortly after the yellowing started again.

I understand that one of these headlight restore kits has some sort of an alleged "preservative" that you put on after you have cleared up the lens. Sorry I don't know what manufacturer makes this.
