yea i need my stuff to laaaaaassssttt..im in it for the long haul !
the wax stuff will eventually wear off though. if you wet sand them depending on the severity of haze and end with 2000 grit then clear coat them the clear will fill the scratches and clear them AND never go hazy again!
The clearcoat has the UV protection, and without that, the headlights are just gonna haze up in a couple months. You need to get it re-cleared or get new headlights (06)
Unfortunately, that brillo pad probably caused permanent damage to your headlights. There is a thin clearcoat on them, and that brillo pad most likely went straight through it.

Next time you decide to mess with your G35 try doing a SEARCH so you get it right, no matter what it may be! It's a very good idea to never use household products on your automobile....never.Gary
ok so i went to autozone and bought the Turtle wax lens restoration kit for 10 bucks.
one of my headlights is brand new and the other is 5 years old and was a little hazed. so i said wow it is like two different socks and got to work. the kit i used instructed wet sanding with 4 different grits, and finally a polisher. after one cycle of this i buffed on the polisher and to my suprise, my headlights looked WORSE than they had when i started. i repeated the process and the hazed headlight remained the same. i am really angry at this and im wondering the best product or method used to remove this haze.!!
thanks very much
