I guess technically the whitening ones should be slightly more abrasive.

Use that for heavy scoring, followed by Gibbs SR as the middle step then a kiddie toothpaste for final polishing.

The toothpaste or T-Cut? And more importantly... Please explain how you know this little gem of information?

Yeah that one on amazon got me bad.......

So after I apply some minty freshness to my headlamps, would a little ice wax or another clear liquid wax be a good enough way to seal?

Yep, stands to reason and is much cheaper than Scratch-X!

go on - fiver for the first person to use a DA with Pearl Drops.
I often use mine with Tcut when i want a bit more aggression Just have to use plenty of water during the process and finish off with a nice fine cut high gloss polish otherwise you get micromarring and holograms.
Sorry Fester is that on your teeth or your headlights?
