How long does the restoration last? How often should this be done?

If this kit does not provide UV protection, can anyone confirm if the SYLVANIA kit provides UV protection? https://www.amazon.com/SYLVANIA-Headlight-Restoration-Headlights-Protection/dp/B00429NKWK/ref=sr_1_2?keywords=Sylvania%2BHeadlight%2BRestoration%2BKit&qid=1666807108&qu=eyJxc2MiOiIxLjI1IiwicXNhIjoiMC42MCIsInFzcCI6IjAuNTUifQ%3D%3D&s=automotive&sr=1-2&th=1

Will one kit restore two headlights?

Did two GX470 headlights with some discs not used, but wish the kit had included two 3000 grit pads. Also, package of protectant was empty.

It seems most people do one light at a time. Has anyone done both lights at the same time, moving them through each grit stage together?

Actually, that was exactly how I did mine. I was a little freaked out because I was afraid if this doesn't work I might just screw up both headlights at the same time. Making my vehicle unusable (at night) until I was able to fix it, but I didn't need to worry. The kit work wonderfully, although until you get to the last step and use the polish you can't really tell how things are working. Other than the fact that all of the steps seemed to be progressing just as others had said with the lights getting more hazy as you work. As I also said I only wish there were more of the rougher sand paper in the kit. My headlights are quite large (Volvo XC90) and the 3 pieces of sandpaper (per light) didn't completely do the job. If you have large headlights and if they are hazy (which if you are thinking of using one of these kits they must be) I would think about maybe getting one kit for each headlight or possibly purchase extra sandpaper on you own to start with (something like P600) then once you have the major 'crud' removed start with the kit and progress thru the stages.

Is there a cheaper alternative tape to the recommended 3M automotive Masking Tape?

I used two types of tape. First, one layer of painters tape. Second, a layer of aluminum foil tape (ASIN: B000BQRBB4). I made sure the foil tape only when on areas first covered by the painters tape. Worked great, I did not sand through the tape to the paint. In one place I got close but the spot was bright blue (painters tape) so I knew to calm down.
