DRIVERS have been left blown away after discovering that a 30p household item can leave your car shining.

Often getting overlooked, foggy headlights can reduce visibility, which could cause an avoidable danger.

But replacing entire headlight units on your motor can cost you hundreds – especially more modern headlights with LED technology.

Handily, TikTok user Chantel Mila (@mamma_mila) recommends sprinkling a generous amount of baking soda onto a lemon in half to brighten your headlights.

You can find a lemon for 30p in Sainsbury’s.

Seconds later, Chantel scrubs her car headlights with the lemon in a circular motion.

According to car experts, you should leave the lemon and baking soda solution for five minutes.

Finally, the savvy cleaner rinses the solution off with water, and the headlights look brand new.

But car experts said that baking soda could not be out of date.

The video has gone viral on TikTok with more than one million views and 69 comments.

Most users were blown away after discovering this handy hack.

One said: “Genius, especially the headlights!”

Another said: “Love your hacks.”

A third joked: “Don’t fancy lemon on my headlight; I’d rather eat it. LOL.”

This comes after a mechanic with more than 55 years of experience claims that there are three new electric cars that he wouldn’t touch with a 10ft pole.

Plus, drivers were left stunned after realising that there’s a £2.50 B&M product they already own, which will clean their cars in seconds.
