That is your clear coat shrinking. They can be made to look brand new. The restoration kits sold in auto parts stores are no good whatsoever for this type of thing. The top coat has to sanded off. I can do a headlight in about an hour, but you have to be pretty diligent to make sure you completely sand out the prior scratches with next finer grit. I place precut pieces in a bucker of clean water and have a couple of dry rags. I use 320, 400, 600, 800, 1200, 1500, 2000, 2500 and 3000. By the time you get to 2500 the lenses are pretty clear already and have a satin glow. Once you are done sanding they will buff to like new with very little effort because 3000 grit scratches are so fine. Takes only a minute if you have an orbital buffer and a foam pad and a compound like M105.
