I recently did this to my Mercedes headlights. I used the 3M kit. It will really depend on the severity of the clouding and how deep you need to cut. It took me quite a while to get the lens looking uniform. Overall the kit works really well using a drill and the sanding pads. I went a step further and used some 600 grit by hand, then 1000 grit. The kit comes with a 3M polish to smooth everything out. I ended up using a 3" da polisher from griots with the polishing pad it came with to get a more crystal clear result. From then I mixed a little bit of plastiX and metal polish mixed together, using the da to keep it nice and clear. Now they are super clear and shiny. I am trying different sealers, I've used the 3M sealer last and it seams to work ok. The 3M kit cost approx $20, and took me about an hour for each side following the instructions.
