Hey guys, new member here. I tried searching this topic but didn't find any helpful information. Just a few older threads. Hopefully this is the right place to post. Any and all suggestions are greatly appreciated.
I have restored plenty of headlights in the past and this is the first time that I've really encountered this "issue". The vehicle is a 2003 Nissan Maxima. I started off using the 3M headlight restoration kit then added a variety of different sanding disc. I started with 500 grit (included in 3M kit) then progressed up to 2500grit and 3M Trizact 3000 pad. Polished with Meguiars 105 and also tried Meguiars plastic X. The lense itself is free from scratches or major defects. It looks okay but doesn't have the clarity that it needs to have. Hopefully the picture shows up below. Please let me know if you guys have any suggestions on what I can do to make these "pop". I hate the hazy look.
