I've used their aluminum polish and I've used toothpaste to polish old gauge cluster lenses. They came out looking perfect with NO scratches.
They were NASTY to begin with.

a post in general taked about headlamp lens cleaning and someone said use tooth paste, I thought yea ok, so I tried it and yes it works, as a matter of fact it worked better then the kits I buy to do my customers cars, I would try it first, it's much cheaper, tooth paste and a rag!

I just tried the Colgate toothpaste and my headlights are better than what they were before. 
It might not be strong enough to get all the yellowing out of headlights but it sure works for the clear plastic used by Mopar in the gauge clusters!
I had to wet sand the headlights on my daily driver before polishing...

I've tried numerous things on yellowed headlights, but not he Mother's stuff mentioned. One thing they all had in common is that the "clear" doesn't last. Only thing I ever found to fix it was new lenses, which is where I eventually went.
They say there are no such thing as a stupid question.
They say there is always the exception that proves the rule.
Don't be the exception.
