The old site had a #1 and a #2 kit, both put together by Rick. My review was for the old #2 kit. When he updated the site, both kits were gone, replaced by a single kit from Meguiars, which is a lot like the old #1 light duty kit. Now he has taken the old #2 kit and replaced the M85 with M105 and put it back on the site - thank you very much!
For this use, I don't see where you would see any difference between M85 and M105. The kit makes it very easy to get everything you need, all you have to provide is a drill, bucket of soapy water, masking tape, and rags (MF, terry, old towels, T-shirts, whatever) to wipe things down.

If it's just lightly fogged and scuffed, you should be able to do it with just PlastX. It will be a lot easier on a foam pad on a drill than by hand. Just like any detailing - least aggressive first, if it doesn't work, break out the heavy ammo. If you use the heavy ammo - wetsanding and 85 or 105, that's going to remove the UV coating and you will have to PlastX them frequently - by hand is fine just to clean them up and apply UV protection.

I was at Wal Mart the other day getting a bulb for my tail light and saw a kit so I went ahead and got it. Figured it couldnt hurt anything. It's a cheaper kit so I wasn't expecting a whole lot but at $16 it really did quite a good job. Came with good directions and everything needed. Here are some pics.

Well to be honest I did absolute zero looking into what to use. It was just a whim kind of thing. But the pictures don't do the bad that much justice. They were yellow and hazy. I know you cant tell but that's more than likely because it was a very overcast day with no sun shining. I just happened to see the kit so I picked it up. Materials wise I couldn't tell you on chemicals. Came with sand papers and some microfibers for the chemicals.
