once u have a haze on the headlights, that means ur clear coat is gone, and its really never gonna come off. i seen some stuff at o'reily's that is to put on ur headlights once they're hazed over. dont konw what it was called, probably like mentioned "plastic x".

Mmmmm, no.

The haze is just oxidation, go get yourself some 800, 1500, and 2000 grit sandpaper, wetsand with each for around 10 minutes, then polish with Mothers Mag&Aluminum polish, they'll look brandy new!

i've seen it done. it doesnt matter what kind/flavor/whitening. but as long as the oxadation is not super bad it will clear most of it up
