Thumbs up Headlight Lens fogging solution FYI

My FD, probably like most others suffers from poor headlights. For those of you that still have their stock set up, and have noticed that the plastic lens is fogged from road sandblasting over the years, you can get some of that transparency back. I tried Novus Plastic scratch remover and it worked very well. I started with #2 which took off about 90% then switched to #1 which dealt with the rest. Someone in another thread had asked if anyone tried something like this, so I posted my experience.
