Though they instantly make your car look glossy, wax and buffing finishes can be pretty pricey and time-consuming.

Use Toothpaste to Clean Cloudy Headlights
Spare yourself the extra expense on headlight cleaning kits by simply using some regular toothpaste. Clear up all that cloudiness by just letting it sit before buffing it off.
This is just another hack that you can achieve at the comfort of your own home. Quick, easy, and cheap.
