We only have a single car garage and only a Volkswagen bug could fit in it. So over the years the headlights on the family van became foggy. It was to the point that it just would not produce enough light when driving at night. This foggy look came from years of sitting outside, the weather elements did it's damage.
I once saw an article where toothpaste was used to clean headlights. So I thought, what the heck, I have toothpaste so why not give it a try.
I took hot soapy water and first washed and rinsed the headlight. Then I took paper towel and squeezed Regular White Toothpaste on the paper towel. I rubbed the toothpaste in a circular motion. Then I went back with more hot soapy water and rinsed it off. I can't believe it, it actually works!
Wow, what a difference. I'm sure that you can use other type of cleaners, really you are just removing the grime from years of weather. I assume by using toothpaste, it's mild enough not to scratch the headlight. Is the headlight crystal clear, not completely but it's about 90% better than what it was, plus it minty fresh too!
