Here's the kit I bought from Advance Autopart. I believe you can get it from Walmart too.



The kit comes with 2 grits of sand papers and 2 types of chemicals. However, I felt like the kit by itself was not enough so I took some extra steps. Here's what I did.

- First I wet-sanded using sand papers 400, 600, 800, 1000, 1500, 2000.
- Then I wet-sanded with the blue sand paper supplied in the kit. This is a 2500 grit sand paper.
- Then I use the 1st chemical. This one is basically rubbing compound. You can use other types of rubbing compound instead if you want.

After this step the lens surface would be very smooth but still somewhat hazy. This is where the 2nd chemical comes in. Most of the haziness was gone after I applied the chemical. It also seals in the lens from future fogging.

It's been less than a month since I did my lens so I can't tell yet how well this kit helps protecting the lens from future fogging. But now I'm pleased with the results.
