Helmet finish

I decided to take off a bunch of stickers off my helmet. Also decided to use goo gone to take away most of the residue. Made my black helmet become cloudy on the finish instead of the gloss. Is there a way to buff it out or polish my helmet so it goes back to black? I don’t really want to go out to home depot to get spray paint.

If you’re careful this would work, but a heat gun would be easier
