For headlights not windshield. I have an older Mercedes with the European/Bosch glass headlights. There are a few small stone chips in the glass surface that I would like to smooth out and fill in. You can barely see them and you really have to search to find them but they are there. It's just me being a bit of a perfectionist. I have found lots of products for windshield repair and bigger chips but nothing for the small chips. Somebody in here must know of a product because somebody in here knows something about everything. Bueller?  Bueller? Thanks in advance.

Clear coat. Put a couple drops in the chips then clear the whole light then wet sand and buf?  
 

worst case you take chemical stripper to the lens if it goes wrong.

Super glue stops some windshield chips from spreading. I don't know how it might work for your headlights.

I've successfully used windshield chip stopper (on windshields), I see no reason it wouldn't work on glass headlights.

Are they just a small surfac chip or are we talking bigger damage?

Surface chips, very small, no cracks. I appreciate all the help so far.
