Plastx is the ultimate fix for foggy headlights
I'm telling this stuff is absolutely amazing. My high beams and my right headlight had the typical condensation buildup, after around 20 mins they looked like new. I hand buffed it which took longer, but it was quite the shock when I realized how well it worked. Thanks to the poster who suggested that I use this on my headlights.

I used it with ok results. I need to do it again and this time I am going to probably wetsand. Those that have wetsanded the headlights, did you wrap the paper around a block or did you just use your fingers?

Plastx definitely works. I plan to use it on my '99 GS4 which has some slight yellowing, but before I did it on that, I tried it out on a '97 Altima with lenses that that were so yellowed over, you couldn't see through them at all. Within 3 minutes of hand-buffing with the plastix, they were clear as day. I bought some 2000 grit sandpaper to clear up the small dents and what little yellow that is left, but I would say just using the Plastx would be enough. I was honestly shocked that it worked so well and so quick.

For headlights that arent deeply cloudy or blemished, can you skip wetstanding?
I have very very slight hairline scratches in my headlights, besides that they are clear and w/out condensation. I've never wetstanded ever, so am somewhat hesitant to start. For headlights like mine, would rubbing compound+Plastix+plastic polish+wax be sufficient? Anyone try that method with good results w/out wetsanding?
