How to clean headlights?
My headlights have formed like a rough look in the front and was wondering how to get them clear and clean again.

wet sand: "Remember 600=>1200=>2000=>2500grit"
..bucket of water, and I use a buffer at the end. It's dirty and it takes awhile if done properly, well worth it though.

The best results can be had with a rotary polisher, but can be dangerous in the hands of those inexperienced with rotaries.
You can also use an orbital polisher, but it would take a bit more time.
Pretty good video on how to do this:
