Like mentioned above, wetsanding is using wet, very-fine sandpaper to sand away the "big" blenishes, then compounding and polishing to remove the sanding marks. I did mine with 1500 grit 3M wet paper, then 2000 grit. Afterwards, the headlight will look like crap until you compound or polish out the sanding marks. But after the polishing, my headlights literally looked like new. Wet-sanding is not for the squeamish or those without a meticulous attention to detail. My headlights took about 1 hour per, and that was using a PC for all compounding/polishing steps. Polishing by hand will take much longer. I have some before, during, and after pics I could zip up and email to you.
Hope this helps.

i used some mothers aluminum polish tonight did that a few times and then put a real good coat of wax on them and that seemed to work good it didnt remove all of the real deep nicks and stuff but got rid of the haze and cleared them up pretty well
