Wet sand them mate. Start on 500 if they are really bad or 1000 if not to bad. Go up and down for 10mins then left to right for 10mins and go through the grades up to 2500. Then machine polish and seal with wax. Check out my build thread as I have just done mine and they have come up like brand new. Easiest to take them off the car so you don't damage the paint.
