Try to use the Porter Cable and some good polish like Menzerna, then lift the hood and get at the headlights!

My Jeep had the same problem. My wife walked into NAPA and they sold her for 10 bucks this kit w/ 6 pads and the drill attachment.. You spray the pad w/ water it activates the compound, keep the drill under 1200 rpms and presto after about5-10 minutes 90% oxidation is gone. Good luck.
