1 Mix the vinegar with water. To make a vinegar-based glass cleaner, mix 3: 1 water with distilled vinegar. For example, mix three glasses of water with one glass of vinegar.

• The same solution can be used to clean car windows.

2 Spray headlights with vinegar cleaner. Pour the water and vinegar solution into an empty household spray bottle. Spray the headlights with this solution. The solution should cover the entire surface of the headlights. Wait a minute for the solution to loosen dirt particles.

3 Wipe off dirt with a microfiber cloth. Take a clean microfiber cloth and wipe the vinegar solution off the headlights to remove bugs, visible dirt and dust. Wipe in large, circular motions to reduce drips. Most of the dirt should come off without issue, but if something sticks to the headlamp, try rubbing harder.

• Even after cleaning visible dirt, the headlights may still be yellow and cloudy. This problem can be solved with a mixture of baking soda and vinegar.
• Repeat the procedure as many times as necessary to remove the dirt.

Method 2 of 3: Rebuild your headlights with baking soda and vinegar

1. 1 Mix baking soda and vinegar. In a bowl or measuring cup, combine two parts white vinegar with one part baking soda. The interaction of these two substances will lead to the formation of foam.
   • For example, take four tablespoons of vinegar and two tablespoons of baking soda if that's enough. Take as much vinegar and baking soda as you need.
2. 2 Apply the mixture to the headlights. Dip a clean cloth in the bite and baking soda solution and run it over the headlamp. Rinse the entire surface of the headlamp and don't forget the edges. Wipe in small circular motions to distribute the mixture evenly.
3. 3 Rinse off the solution with clean water. Rinse off the solution from the headlights with water. If soda remains on the headlamp, it will create a white haze when reflected. Continue rinsing the headlamp until it is clean and shiny. Then dry it with a clean cloth or paper towel.
   • The headlamp can also be washed with a sponge. Soak a sponge in clean water and wipe off the baking soda. Squeeze the sponge several times to remove any traces of baking soda.
   • Rinse off the baking soda with a household spray bottle. Spray the headlamp with water and then wipe until no baking soda remains on the headlamp.
4. 4 Repeat as needed. If the yellow spots are very persistent, or if you haven't washed your headlights in a while, you will have to repeat the cleaning. Apply more cleaner to the headlights, then wipe and rinse.

Method 3 of 3: Applying wax with vinegar

1. 1 Heat the wax. Mix together one cup of linseed oil, four tablespoons of carnauba wax, two tablespoons of beeswax, and half a cup of apple cider vinegar. Place the ingredients in a steam bath. Heat the wax and keep stirring the mixture until the wax melts.
   • Carnauba wax can be purchased at a car dealership.
   • If you don't have a steam bath, place the ingredients in a clean can. Place the jar in a pot of boiling water. Be careful not to burn yourself when you take out the jar.
2. 2 Transfer the wax to another container and wait until it cools. When both waxes are melted and mixed, pour the wax into another container (jar or measuring cup). Wait for the wax to cool and harden again, after which it is ready to use.
   • If you've poured wax into a container with a lid, you can save it for later.
3. 3 Rub the wax into the headlights. When the wax has cooled, scoop it up with a clean rag and apply it to the headlights. Apply wax in a circular motion to the entire surface of the headlights.
4. 4 Wipe off the wax with a clean cloth. Take a clean rag and wipe off the wax. There should be no streaks or streaks on the headlights. The headlights should look polished and shine in the sun.
