yep, when I saw your car at the meet, your headlight clear coat was peeling away, so what you gotta do, is wetsand your headlights, use anything AT LEAST 800 grit (its really fine, so it cleans it right off, without scratching your lights). The key to wetsanding is always have the item wet, have a bucket filled with water and constantly dip the sand paper in it.

After wet sanding, use buffing compound/polish and polish it very throughly and press hard (if you dont have an orbital). Then wipe clean. Problem solved.

wet sanding is easy, dont be scared to sand ur headlights. its really fine, and wont damage ur lights. just be sure to use at least 800 grit, the waterproof ones.

wet sand is sand paper that wont fall apart when its covered in water. the grit determines how fine or coarse the paper is. Wet sand allows you to sand without burning the material or marring the surface too much.
