Does anyone know what kind of polish and cloth is needed for the early version of these? I never got the original polish kit and over time the clearcoat has gotten cloudier and cloudier. Polish should clear it up but I don't want to just go to home depot and grab something off the shelf that isn't the right product.

ktymeI realize I'm responding to this late, but if you're still interest. I've used Meguiar's Swirl Remover, which is a automotive buffing compound. My cups weren't particularly cloudy, but it had lots of little micro scratches, so the swirl removed worked for my case. For the cloth, I just used a lint free microfiber polishing cloth. That should get the finish looking clear again.
I then tried using a hand drill buffing attachment. And it actually made the cups more glossy than the original finish. I'd just be careful with over buffing, especially with powertools, cause you can easily buff through the clear coat.
