I been polishing my headlights for years, and I never used plastic polish. I use the finest grit polishing compond that I have. works great.

Keep in mind, adter you polish you need to wax the lights, it helps with the yellowing/fogging.

I also use the same stuff on the rear window.

I would really recomend meguirs plastic cleaner #10, then the polish #17. Then follow it up with some plexus. The plexus alone didn't do it for me, plus it would only hold for a couple days then go back to looking the same.

My headlights were probably some of the worse i've seen on a s2000, yellowing, hazing, etc. Today i took some wet 1500 grit sand paper, and went to work. Folloing up with the plastic cleaner and polish. They look brand new.
