the before pics is from few posts back and apologies for my massive photos.

also, would using a buffer machine with more polish take the haze away and clear up the lens? i only used about 3/4 of the rubbing compound that came with the kit one pack for both lens. the second pack i did not even use.
thanks. i still need to get some uv protection on there asap.

I just did mine last weekend also using the 3M kit (the drill attachment version) with very similar results. My headlights are now smooth, but there's still a slight haze when looking from the sides even after buffing it several times...just like yours. Can't wait to see how yours turned out after the mineral/urathane application.

PS...looks like we're pretty close to each other (I'm in Irvine and works in NPB). If you want to compare the results in person, we can meet up. I would love to see your urathane results (or application process) in person.
