My dad used something made by 3M that worked very well on my mom's van. I'm not sure what it was called, but it had 3 disks of varying grit and was used in a drill. I think he got it at Autozone.

The best thing I have have used is Mothers Mag and Aluminum Polish. It works great on foggy headlights.

If they are real foggy take a sheet of 1500grit paper... sanding with water..then follow up with 2000grit and water. Then use a polish of your choice.

MR. Clean Magic Eraser. Wife uses them in the kitchen. I tried one on the lenses of her car, worked great. Can be fond with the dish washing sponges at your local store.
