Default Headlight cleaning

How do I get that fog/haze out of the inside of the headlight? When I had a bulb replaced, the place who did it cleaned it and it looks brand new. I brought the car back to see if they could clean the other one to match, no luck. Its on the clear cover, I have taken the cover off, cleaned with with windex, soap, even lest oil, nothing works. Any ideas?

Thanks, Dan

Is it aplastic cover??? if it is then you can use a product called scratch out that you can buy at Wal-Mart for a $1.97 I used it on a cover for a scooter I bought...Take a look it is only a couple of bucks....I have the glass ones and I am having to buff them out with other stuff..

Do you have halogen or HID? I am guessing halogen...since you have cleaned it inside/out, you can ask a detailer to see if they recommend any solution for this.

Oxidation is the cause of the blemish known as fog, haze, cloudy and yellow. It can be quickly removed with a pure liquid acrylic lens restorer. Pittman's ALR makes the only pure liquid headlight lens de oxidizer.
It safe non abrasive and works on contact.
