Polish and alcohol both help, but you have to actually remove the outer layer of plastic to get back to 100%. Josh's method does that.
Laurel also has her own method which is kind of a shortcut:

She basically uses metal cleaner instead of sandpaper, and then fills in all the miniscule imperfections with wax. I don't know if that works as well as sanding and clearcoating.

as vrg3 mentioned.....you really need to remove the outer layer of plastic for this to be truly effective. I had sanded everything and thought it was good. When I applied the acetone, there was still yellow there that was coming off on the paper towel. Once I got all the yellow wiped off and it was just white plastic.....then I started sanding again until surface was to my satisfaction.
Then I painted.
Then I painted.
