TikTok user @adrean_i revealed that olive oil can actually remove scratches and repair a foggy dashboard.

Adrean said: “Scratchy or foggy gauges? Use a little dab of olive oil. Wipe down with paper and towel or microfiber cloth after. Just like new.”

And you can find a spray of olive oil in Aldi for only £1.49.

The poster titled the video: “Bought a new (certified-used) car, and it needed a little touch-up. Just a little random tip for you!”

According to car experts at Mazda, this product improves the shine of the dash while removing everyday surface dirt.

But it also protects against cracks and general wear and tear.

The video has had more than 7,717 views and 12 comments.

But not everyone is convinced after discovering this hack on TikTok.

One said: “That’s why I don’t take my cars to get interior detailing by morons. Also, would the oil attract dust and drip down on hot days?”

The poster answered: “I did find it did start to drip on super hot days where it’s over 100 degrees. I just wipe it down with a microfiber cloth and reapply.”

A second said: “Thank you!”

While a third pointed out: “Put a tiny bit of olive oil on a microfiber, gently apply it by doing a circular movement. That way, it won’t drip down on hot days like that.”

This comes after drivers were left blown away after discovering that a 30p household item can level your car shinning.

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.
