Jenn just use some wax on them every now and again. the plastic polish is ok but there is nothing to protect the lenses.

no you dont have to worry bc the nice thing about it is as long as you dont sand in one spot to long you marks are only as bad as the grit on the paper...im actually gonna do mine this weekend..but a really fine grit bc they are not that bad then wet sand and ill probably use the mothers ball on the drill
