i use meguiars plastx and a drill buffer to remove it. to keep it off you should use like a good sealant and then maybe a coat of wax or two. chances are it won't stay away forever though. just make sure once it's done to also seal and wax the outside, that will help protect the inside too.

Yup! Buff it off, seal it with a few coats of paint/plastic sealant, idk if I would wax it though. Definitely wax and seal the outsides though, jam the cracks with some wax.

i think depo projectors look alright. i have depo black housings because my stock headlights were oxidized beyond repair and one was cracked. but to a certain extent it's a better choice to repair them rather than replace.
