Can Wet sanding fix this? ;) pics attached
 
My left headlight was bit fogged up for a while, so recently, someone adviced to use brake oil to clean it up..

well, it looked brand new for 2 days.. until yesterday..i saw this!!

I guess I should've rinsed or maybe it was a totally fucked up idea..

can I wet sand it out?

brake oil?? that ---- is pretty corrosive. so i'm not sure

I know ------ mazda forums and stupid buddy at work who encourged it!! It was already foggy and spider cracking b4 though..

Anyone selling their headlights or do I have to resort to ricer halo ones?

just buy yourself some 1000 grit sandpaper and get to work. Then after your done that use some Meguiar's plastic polish to finish up

how much does a new headlight go for?

Look in the for sale section. I'm sure someone has a set lying around. New headlight costs an arm and a leg so go to the scrap yard.

try this before anything, could save you some cash...

but wetsand with the 1000 grit, then follow with some 2000 grit...then polish with the plastic polish, then follow up with a couple coats of wax....

Alot of car forums suggest putting brake fluid on things when they are ------- around. Brake fluid is highly corrosive and eats up whatever part your're putting it on. (usually suggested on paint)
