--- I agree with Bill Huff on the effects of toothpaste. I have only used it for 20 years so what do I know? If you are really lazy like me you can use a random orbital machine with a foam pad. Put the orbiter in a vise and use something like Griot's polishing compound. It is a very thin liquid material. I had two NOS tail light lens for my 300F which had been in the unopened boxes for 47 years and were dulled by abrasion from sliding around in the boxes. I used the orbiter and it took less than 30 seconds on each lens to make them absolutely flawless. Stunning is the word. They also sell a compound that is a little more aggressive for deeper scratches.
