I used a cordless for the job and only used 1 full battery pack plus a couple minutes with a new pack. But my batteries are old so I'm sure you could do it with one pack easy if they're newer.

Ok cool thanks, im going to take along time anyway. I have pretty bad scratches and oxidation on my lenses, far worse then what you had, but i still think this kit will work perfect. Just picked it up for 17.99 it was on sale.

IMO, for $17, this kit seems like a no-brainer....especially if you don't have a PC.
If you get Plastix and sand paper, that is all you have. You'll need a lot of elbow grease to get the results your looking for.
The 3m kit allows you to get very good results with a lot less hassle.

I use this system in combination with a softer black waffle 3" pad to finish as the orange pad is a bit aggressive on its own and can still leave swirls. This system also works great to do small scratches on paint.
