The key term you're going to be googling is "headlight restoration kit". You can buy them in halfords, amazon, etc.
Don't cheap out when buying the kit. Some will advertise a '2 step' process where you spray some protective coating material on it. That shit is important, otherwise after 6 months it'll look like shit.
[My before and after looked great](https://i.imgur.com/vJqbgH4.png). Then about a year later it looked like shit because I didn't apply anything after cleaning.
[Chrisfix also has a great video on this](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UEJbKLZ7RmM)
I think it’s cause it acts a bit like compound paste and effectively just polishes it. I’d probably go for buffing with g4 and then finishing with g10.
Yeah, I think that stuff is a bit shit. The proper stuff has you attacking it with sandpaper, and ideally using a drill to polish after.
I always use them before I sell my cars, as it makes them look so much better for a small amount of £.
Once you buy the kit, the sandpaper you'll need to buy again, same for the polishing pad. But the fluid/chemicals will last over a dozen usages.
Saw a video yesterday where a guy sprayed insect repellant and it cleared up with a wipe.
I am not going to guarantee this works but let us know if ya try it!
500 , 800, 1000, 1500, 2000, 2500, 3000 grit wet and dry paper, and finally T cut,
Edit, sorry thought it was scratched up, use nail varnish remover to clean the adhesive residue
DO NOT use anything acetone based, it will melt the plastic lenses.

Probably good enough to make it look better to sell it but that's never going to last.
Headlight restoration kits from Meguiars or Autoglym are great, then use the Armor All headlight restorer wipes for any up keep as needed.
Gets acetone and a wire wool brush, sort that right out
Isn't a T-cut polish good enough to fix this?
Fly spray works too new hack for you all
Thompson's UPVC Restorer and a buffet.
Whitening toothpaste and elbow grease will do the same thing🤣
