Best Answer

There are a few aftermarket products made specifically for the restoration of hazy, yellow headlight lenses. For example, one product made by CCP called the "5 Minute Headlamp Lens Restorer" can be found in most auto parts stores. It's a chemical-free optical grade lens restorer that removes scratches, hazing, yellowing, micro-pitting, and that typical "frosted" appearance. The kit consists of several foam pads which are pre-saturated with a special polishing formula. You use a drill and a spray bottle of plain tap water and work on the lenses until clarity is restored - usually in less than five minutes. Another product is made by Permatex, called the Headlight Lens Restoration Kit. It's similar in principle, with a special plastic restoration polish you use with very fine sandpaper sheets (included) and a polishing cloth to restore the lenses. Feedback from customers have shown favorable results with either product.

What happens when light hits frosted glass?

Some of the light is reflected, some is absorbed by the glass, and the rest makes it all the way through and comes out of the other side. Since the glass is "frosted" or"ground", the light is scattered (bounces around) inside the glass, and doesn't follow a straight path. Although the light intensity and illumination survive the trip through it, images don't.
