I googled online and found this:

Seems like this company Novus specializes in scratch removers for plastic. I wonder how well it will work on headlights. I have some swirl marks from the body shop accidentally getting rubbing compound on the headlights. Any of you guys have experience with this product?

 

I used it on the plastic display of a Model 100 Laptop computer from Radio Shack back in 1982 (Stuff's been around a long time...). It flat out works and leaves a very high sheen.

 

Thanks, I found a review where they tested it on IPODS and it seems to do the job there as well. I'm going to go ahead and give it a shot...

 

Hey guys, I gave the Novus product a shot and you definitely DO NOT want to use this on our headlights. The product actually caused more scratches than it took away. I ended up going back to the 3M Swirl Remover that I've been using on the body of my car, and miraculously it took away the scratches on my headlights! That stuff is amazing. I swear it's a wonder formula. I think I'll go set up a shrine in worship of it.

 

plastX by meguiars works awesome.

 

Thanks for the response. How is plastx at removing scratches? From the product descriptions I'm reading, it seems more geared towards cleaning and removing contaminants...

 

This easy-to-use, rich gel formula quickly restores optical clarity to both rigid and flexible clear plastics. Cutting-edge advancements in Meguiar’s exclusive Microscopic Diminishing Abrasive Technology (MDAT) remove light oxidation, chemical degradation, surface contamination, stains and light surface scratches with ease. Special highly water resistant polymers provide long lasting durable protection to keep your clear plastics clear and beautiful longer. We recommend applying PlastX with a High Tech Applicator Pad or Ultra Plush Super Terry and using an Ultra Plush Super Terry or Supreme Shine Microfiber for the final wipe-off.

depending on how deep your swirls are.

basically, plastX is scratchX for plastic.

shoot, i'd even try scratchX
