Any before pictures?

Yea I polished mine like that 2 months ago and they're already faded

Perhaps it would be wise to polish and then use a 3m film to protect them from UV rays or something

might last a long time in th UK,

here - yeah, UV protectant might be the difference between 3 months or 3 tears of clear lenses.

@scoobyboy63

Is that the Autosol Metal Polish? Did you add anything after, e.g., for UV protection?

(Autosol here has a headlight polishing kit: #0008 AUTOSOL Headlight Polish & Protection Kit. Wonder if it's essentially the same tube paste . . . )

they make a polish for plastic - I think it more specifically mentions rear windows on convertible tops.

but the part number on the back of the tube shown is for the metal polish.

is that metal polish what GORT uses as a bath / body wash while visiting planet earth?

Probably the same paste and a marketing reason to make more money!

I used a gloss UV resistant clear coat over mine after I rubbed them down with rubbing compound. Been on about a year and still looking good here in the desert.
