Clearer headlights

would wet sanding and highspeed buffing my headlights make them more clear and cleaner?

or any other suggestions?

If it's a plastic lens.. yes.. but more then likely you may have taken the UV coating off them to clear them, and in which time means it'll start to haze over again in a month or so. But you could get those clear uv protectant stick on sheets from 3M that may prevent the hazing after.

IF it's Glass.. you're S.O.L'd

I just used some metal polish, buffed it on, and off turned out pretty good, the more you use it, the better it turns out, it was a must for me, cause I had just gotton clear corners, and my headlights were all yellow lol
