Ford Explorer: Hazed plastic lens on headlights

Hazed plastic lens on headlights
I have a 95 Explorer, over time the plastic lens on the headlights and
front parking lights have become hazed. I was watching the TV show
Crank & Chrome one day and they were showing this product that does
the job, but I can't remember what it was. I tried to go to their web
site but no luck finding anything. I have seen plastic polishes for
plexi-glass on the shelves at auto part stores, but can someone
recommend the best product for the job that they have used . I don't
want to buy something that's not really going to work.

Re: Hazed plastic lens on headlights
Well there's a product called "Nicsand" that is supposed to work for it, but
what I use is just good old white paste polishing compound .
I use my cordless drill fitted with a foam pad. Then I smear some compound
on the lens, and on the pad. I *slightly* dampen the pad, and go to work.
Only takes a few minutes before they are crystal clear again.
In fact I just restored the lights on my 96, and the look absoloutely NEW !
and mine were so bad, you almost couldn't tell the lights were on at night

I've had good success with a plain car wax / cleaner compound like
NuFinish. These are less abrasive than the compound.
