Pittman Advance Formula ALR*C
Pittman Original ALR has a new deoxidizer that conditions and resists the return of oxidation and UV yellowing ALR*C.
The new formula works instantly like the original but it lasts longer.
It still is unable to fix UV damage but nobody is able to do that.
Very hard to find the original formula as a single unit, its sold as part of the TSS with the conditioner.

Mass migration of opinion when it comes to using sandpaper to clean headlights: http://www.ebay.com/gds/How-to-Choos...8258700/g.html
New patents for acrylic deoxidizers are beginning to appear and the makers of the conventional headlight cleaners are shifting focus to polish away from sandpaper

Now everyone who has the expertise is trying to "build a better mouse trap". They can create faux deoxidizers but they are unable to repair UV damage.
FOR THOSE WHO DON'T KNOW:
UV damage is a yellow tinting of the plastic that cannot be removed by physical or chemical action,
It is not caused by oxidation, It is a result of exposure to the Suns Ultra Violet light rays, which causes the yellowing tint of the lens. this is not on the surface it permeates the lens.
UV damage is not a physical defect you can feel with your hand it is a visual one that can only seen with your eyes.
Best bet, If anyone does come up with a UV fix, it won't have anything to do with sandpaper it will be chemical.
