2. Remove Crayon or Scuff Marks
Perfect for walls, floors, or furniture:
- Apply a small dab of toothpaste
- Add a light layer of Vaseline
- Rub gently with a cloth
The toothpaste lifts the stain while Vaseline prevents surface damage.
3. Loosen Stuck Zippers
If a zipper won’t budge:
- Apply a tiny amount of Vaseline along the teeth
- Use a bit of toothpaste to clean grime buildup
- Gently work the zipper back and forth
This cleans and lubricates at the same time.
4. Clean Foggy Headlights (Temporary Fix)
This is a short-term cosmetic solution:
- Clean the headlight first
- Rub in toothpaste mixed with Vaseline
- Wipe off thoroughly
It may improve clarity temporarily, but it’s not a permanent repair.
5. Protect Screws and Small Tools
After cleaning rust or grime with toothpaste:
- Apply a thin layer of Vaseline
- This helps protect metal from moisture and corrosion
