Actually its my sister's car. I am guessing under 8,000 miles since I did the restoration.

The mineral spirits brand is Kleen Strip and it is an odorless. The spar urethane brand is Helmsman Spar urethane, it is indoor/outdoor clear gloss. Both can be found at Home Depot. These are the brands that I use, not sure what others are using.

When I prime it with mineral spirits, I allow it to evaporate before I apply the sealant, and it makes the application process smoother for some reason. But, not sure if it dilutes the sealant any, I guess you could mix the urethane a little stronger to offset that problem.

Not saying you are wrong, but it is well known that headlights yellow over time without the urethane treatment too. IMO I don't think it matters what you put on the lights, they eventually will yellow and haze up again. If there is a "magical" permanent easy to use and affordable headlight...
