    I can notice a big difference between a Sig and a Glock. Then again I'd rather shoot the HK any day before the Glock.

    Okay, okay, I'll let y'all in on the secret to hillbilly headlight restoration. First, you wetsand em with 3000 grit until they are smooth. Wipe em dry and hit em with air to get all of the water off and out of the tape. Then they will not be yellow, but still foggy. Then you hit em with a buffer in short bursts with Meguiars compound, the bottle with a red hood on the front. The Meguiars helps to seal the plastic back up. Many methods work, but the Meguiars seals em, unlike methods such as using Off bug spray and toothpaste. :thumbsup:

    I've used the Meguiars polishing compound before. Just hand buffed 'em.

    That'll do it too, we just do it with the buffer for expediency.

    I've got a BIG buffer and a smaller Porter-Cable "polisher". Thinking the smaller one would be ideal.

    Try a tile shop/distributor, my tile guy uses them for buffing the cut edge on marble.

    Yes, but be careful! Angle grinder is pretty high speed compared to a buffer. Can "burn" delicate items like plastic.
