Do those $20 kits at Advance auto work for polishing and recoating headlights?

The dealership scratched my headlights and now I need to go through the whole sanding, polishing, and coating process...

I don't know how well they work or how long before the haze returns. What all is included with that kit? I might get it and try it on a spare Civic headlight I have, instead of experimenting on the original set of Mulderized headlights.

Supposedly it has two grits of paper, a final polish, and the UV polish protectant.

I need to get that for my headlights then. They are hazy as a mofo.

I think that's what Gyoza uses. So have you been by the shop to see the progress on your car?

I used the Macquire's kit on my wife's civic and it did a great job. But six months later the haze is back.

What should you coat it with after you do the resurface?
