The other day I was on YouTube looking at science stuff and found this guy that used toothpaste and peanut butter to polish his acrylic water tanks. So I immediately thought, lets try this shhh.. poop!
Materials:
-Toothpaste (I used Crest+Whitening. It was on sale for $0.99 :idea
-Small jar of peanut butter (I used Jif)
-Microfibre towels
-Water
-Car soap
*Wax (Mother's)
*Optional
Procedure:
1) Wash the headlights as you normally do.
2) While the headlights are still wet, put a thick toothpaste line on the lights.
3) W/ a microfibre towel, start buffing the lights w/ moderate pressure.
4) After aprox. 3 minutes of buffing, clean the headlight w/ plain water.
5) Dry it.
6) Put a small drop of peanut butter on the surface and start to spread it as if you were waxing.
7) Wash w/ car soap and dry the headlights.
*8) Put a layer of your favorite sealer/final step wax.
To my surprise, it worked GREAT! I was so amazed, that I forgot to do an instant "before & after", but, I found a pic about two weeks ago for comparison.

AFTER:
Not bad for a "less than $5.00 headlights repair kit" huh?!?
