you saved me about 40 seconds of life, thanks.

[@Pipa217]

OMG it works!!!! I fixed it!!!! Thanks a million for uploading the video!!! You are amazing!!! 💕🙏🏼

[@mike48632]

And your lights smell minty fresh lol

[@dondon6988]

And no cavities..............

[@rogeliomontana4916]

Do I have to use whitening strips along with the toothpaste or just the toothpaste?

[@notmanynamesleft]

You need toothpaste with bicarbonate of soda and it works 👌🏼

[@chinaboss6683]

baking soda?

[@scotshabalam2432]

We used to do this to CDs, DVDs, Blus, and disc games back in the day when they were scratched.

He didn't floss though

You make great videos. Make more 😊👍

[@tiger.6509]

Baking soda would do the same thing I would say just add a little baking soda

[@ΝικοςΚεσιδης-τ9χ]

How you use the baking soda?

[@sugarnads]

I used maccleans normal toothpaste and papertowels on my old pathfinder. Worked a treat. For temporary results wd40 works too.

[@euthanized76]

Good stuff Alvin!!!

[@lucasfever]

Love the video man... but the background music almost put me to sleep

[@CreAce22]

Lucas Mariani Almost? It put me in a 3 day coma

[@MsJackson3015]

Lucas Mariani I was trying to figure out what kind of jungle animal noises I was listening to in the background.

[@truckerray7533]

ya did a purty good job there, bud. i'll have to try that on my 2001 Dodge diesel pickup. thankya for sharing

[@Jesterwonder01]

Rodney Leonard dude dnt do this to ur truck!

[@truckerray7533]

+Jesterwonder01 Why not there, bud? What's wrong? I haven't done anything yet with the plastic headlight lenses. Just ain't had time. So what would be the problem?

Does this work on all males and models ?

[@johnnycee888]

Thank-you so much. I Cr 13:8a, Love never fails !

[@MehrLovin]

I think the key is to ceramic coat the lenses after polishing. Preferably a double coat.

[@seanhomar5945]

Ive heard of this many times but never tried it, today I did as I have mot test coming up and foggy lights can fail it. It worked surprisingly well at first, the difference between before and after was big, but after the lenses dried of a little they weren't as clear but still better than before cleaning.

[@NATURALGAMING]

Your supposed to do it repeatedly also wax

[@floriankrauss]

Please polish in circular movements

[@boomking5889]

So... The secret was too use water? I just put the toothpaste on and left it there. No wonder it didn't work. Thanks!

[@Grit489]

Boom King bahaha

[@themoonchild233]

Is that what you do when you brush your teeth

[@たかちゃん-j3q]

Alphonso DeVante 😂😂😂

[@agondokusumo-111]

If that whitening toothpaste could remove that yellowing effect on your headlight, just imagined what it does to your teeth and enamel😂

[@bharathcm8660]

Nice video but would be better with high volume.

[@JunkyDIYguy]

thanks

[@HUBBABUBBADOOPYDOOP]

After initial cleaning- please try a high SPF suntan lotion to seal and protect. Ones with cocoa butter and coconut scented are my favorite. Let dry 1 hour before wiping.

[@pokoufranck637]

@Junky DIY guy very nice video, But I just want to know when I use toothpaste how many time it will be stay very clean.

[@SandwichLady]

Make sure you wax after cleaning with toothpaste. That’s the trick to keep the headlight lens shiny and clear.

[@QuanTruong7]

nicely done mate.

[@zeus6662]

Not all toothpaste will work. Colgate works well. Those with baking soda and peroxide works extreme well. Green gel will not work.

[@robindodd4761]

Bed time music with head light lol

[@darkjustice851]

Cool

[@stephenmartini5890]

A paper towel is the worst thing to use on headlights as it leaves behind scratches in the plastic. Use a terrycloth rag for best shine.

[@username8171]

All the toothpaste does is hold the grit on, like baking soda, or if it is already in the toothpaste.

[@stephenmiles8424]

thanks

[@tyserhicks3349]

Has anybody realized this is the same stuff that we clean our teeth (or mouths ) with ?

[@yolandagarza7840]

[@anonymoushackinggtb2280]

No I didn't realise you would use toothpaste for your teeth. You are a genius

[@MrSalsa1973]

Floride...Go figure.

[@DarkToleSon]

No way, that's crazy bro!

[@HisshadO]

Tooth paste works on teeth nicely but its abrasive qualities will damage and remove the protective UV layer on the average plastic headlight. This is a old shade tree mechanic trick that has long been proven damaging to the surface of the lens the safest fastest method is an acrylic lens deoxidizer

[@laurensmith5076]

It doesn't work it makes it foggier

[@mitchielumapat7626]

For you which is better toothpaste or rubbing compound? Please reply asap.

[@MrJolem]

just as easy to use Tcut...

[@shanelleg9865]

I Love You😢.

[@KorAllRBare]

Before applying wax I would mask around the Lens and then spray the lens twice "4~8 hours apart as per recommended for the paint" with a UV Resistant can of Clear Spray Paint, So that there wont be a need to resurface them ever again, unless you intend to keep the car for longer than 5~7 years..

[@benbroly233]

"Micro fibre cloit" .

Micro fibre clit

[@jrw6061]

Cheap manufacturing is the root cause of the problem.

[@hadassah9756]

I’ve tried this and it didn’t seem to work.

[@raiderjames85]

Bliss Huthart just did it worked for me

[@dumdum778]

I could see you working hard on it but cant see any significant improvement in 'clearness' of the plastic surface.

[@gtadding7054]

i didnt saw a change in your headlights

[@mandk6089]

At about 5:29 he stepped on the cats tail.

[@joannfinn4692]

Lol...it was actually a parrot.

[@UniqueParadise33]

Some are worst then others and that headlight wasn’t that bad in the first place

[@papifrancisco1466]

Mine looks all foggy now why

[@d.naiken8371]

Use more water

Sorry about that, The stock audio in my camera is really bad,

THIS FUCKING BACKGROUND MUSIC. YES I AM YELLING SO YOU WAKE UP READING THIS COMMENT. DON'T WANT YOU FALLING ASLEEP TO THE SAME GOD DAMN MUSIC EVERYONE USES. :)

[@zurdoremi]

no it doesn't work.

[@ChipzBlanco]

At least your headlights won't get any cavities!

[@kuhnhan]

Headlights don't ever get cavities, they aren't teeth.

[@johngray8606]

Music is a nuisance, also nearly quarter of the video gone , yapping" before any action, how these people like to hear themselves talking.

[@tegmapat11]

I used toothpaste & it didn't do anything, but my headlights were far worse looking than yours. I even tried leaving the toothpaste on for a while, still nothing!

[@JunkyDIYguy]

First make sure, the oxidation is on the outside of the headlight. because if it, is natural discoloration of the plastic from inside, then this method won't work. If it is outside like mine, and the toothpaste doesn't take em off, then try this, this will definitely work kzbin.info/www/bejne/qneon6aBn9tlhck

[@tegmapat11]

Thanks for the help. As I said, mine are really bad & I'm afraid won't pass inspection anymore.

[@Bert03241]

get rid of the music

[@ApaPapaLah]

I've tried. No joy, just bullshit. Better to buy REAL headlamp cleaner. Stop wasting your toothpaste. It may clean up the dirt, but not removing the scrathches.
