The clouding is damaged plastic, partly from mechanical scratches and partly from chemical causes. You could maybe bleach it and then fill all the scratches with some crystal-clear resin or silicone goop or whatever, but I think the best you could actually achieve by doing that is a nice-looking finish that still doesn't actually transmit light from behind it very well.

I know Lego bricks are made from ABS, but this also seems to work on PVC and such, and the clear Lego give me hope. (I ask, of course, because my car's old enough to drink, even here in the States, and the headlights have gotten rather excessively dim.)

Even in a post about the nerd's lowly household chores, cleaning up computer cases and Lego bricks, you manage to put a video about things catching on fire. Ever thought about applying for a job at Mythbusters? Dan, I must congratulate you.

I've had good luck on minor scratching and just plain clouding of Lego and other clear plastics (Ipod screen face comes to mind) using Brasso and a micro fiber cloth. Try it on one piece, see if it works, if not, you've not really done much harm since it was already damaged. Keep in mind that this is a destructive process - you will be removing very fine layers of plastic... so do it by hand and not with, say, a random orbit buffer. Ahem. Dan - you really freak me out man. Multiple times over the last few years you seem to have been reading my mind by posting topics directly related to things I was just about to research. In this case, I just came into possession of a circa 1980 Millenium Falcon (http://theswca.com/images-toys/figuretoys/falcon.html) which lived in a closet for the last 25 years and has some serious age related yellowing issues. My 4 year old is big into Star Wars and so it's an excellent xmas present candidate but I really did want it looking better than it does... I know what I'm doing tonight! So, in short, thanks for the info and get outta my head... or please remove your surveillance equipment form my home.
