An economical method to clean the foggy headlights of a car

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Headlight

What we show in this video may not be the best method in the world, but it is certainly the most economical, and it is accessible to everyone. All you need is a potato peeler, a bar of soap, toothpaste, and a lemon. Mix everything in a bowl until you get a soft paste. Then add some baking soda and mix again. Spread the mixture with a slightly abrasive sponge over the headlight, then sprinkle more baking soda and pass the sponge again to mix it well. Let it sit for twenty minutes. Spread more of the bowl's contents with the soft side of the sponge, and let it sit for another 20 minutes, then spread more toothpaste, always with the soft side of the sponge. Clean with a soft cloth and enjoy the result.
