To make a handy cleaning tool, take an old toothbrush and hold its neck on a hot stove unit until the plastic softens enough that you can bend the "head" of the toothbrush backwards.

The toothbrush will then get into some crevices that a regular toothbrush can't.

I thought this one up on my own, though I'm certain other people thought of it too. That's one thing I've
learned from the Internet; if you have an idea, somebody else somewhere had the same idea. Probably several somebodys.

franksolich once discovered that cleaning windows with ammonia and old newspapers worked well, and thinking it a new idea, got all agog and excited about it; like Chief S itting Bull, the bird-smacking stoned red-faced primitive and his patentable ideas, I wanted to patent it.

Also, there was one time I devised a round thing that rolled.....

1. Great Idea. Use use an old toothbrush for tons of things, but never thought of bending one. Be sure that will be my next effort. Got to do some polishing that requires that I scrub the white residue out of the crevices.

2. Internet

That's how I fix software problems on my computer. Someone, usually a number of someones, has already figured it out and posted the answer.

3. Great idea. Definitely stealing it. Watch out, tiny dirty surfaces!

I remember back in the 80's when they had a commercial that demonstrated the DUmmie brain. It also involved a hot stove.

I believe it also included an egg and a frying pan. I'll H5 the first person to post the youtube video of the commercial in question.

Toothpaste is a mild abrasive.  It's also good for removing fog and film from plastic headlights.  A tube of toothpaste (99-cents) and a random orbital sander with a soft brush ($2.99) works pretty well.  My Camry has plastic headlight covers that were fogged over until I tried that as a cheap fix.

Mother's $20 "polish" is a waste of money.

Cris is right about that.
Yup, then wander to a local car parts place, or Walmart, and pick up a squirt bottle of UV protectent.
It's not long term, just helps, and prolongs.

The toothbrush will then get into some crevices that a regular toothbrush can't.

"Liberalism is an essentially feminine, submissive world view. Perhaps a better adjective than feminine is infantile. It is the world view of men who do not have the moral toughness, the spiritual strength to stand up and do single combat with life, who cannot adjust to the reality that the world is not a huge, pink-and-blue, padded nursery in which the lions lie down with the lambs and everyone lives happily ever after."

Hey DUches, when you bend that piece of plastic over the burner make sure to get a real good lung full of the smoke that comes off of it.
