Fixing A Dent With Hot Water & A Plunge
Is there a ding on the side of your car? Don’t be alarmed! We’ve got you covered! Dents are common, and contrary to popular belief, they are fairly easy to repair. Simply boil some water in a teapot or saucepan, pour it over the dent, and press the plunger down. The dent should pop right out of the car’s body if it isn’t severely damaged; it won’t look as good as it did before, but it will be less noticeable.

Dirty Headlights And Toothpaste
If your headlights are foggy, don’t rush to the nearest auto store for a special solution! At home, you may already have a solution to your problem. It turns out that toothpaste, which contains mild abrasives that clean enamel, works just as well on headlights as it does on teeth. Your headlights can be as clear as day again with a little toothpaste and elbow grease! (As a side note, this may or may not work in all cases.) If the inside is yellowing, it might be time to replace it.)

Put A Shower Caddy In The Trunk
You probably have oil, a funnel, a rag, a flashlight, and other emergency car supplies in your trunk if you’re the type to plan ahead. Consider purchasing a shower caddy to keep all of your important items organized and out of the way when you need them, as well as to keep the trunk clean.

Use Pool Noodles To Prevent Car Dings
Do you frequently hit the garage door on the side of your garage when you exit? A simple solution is to cut a pool noodle in half and tape it to the wall where the door swings open (the scuff marks should make it easy enough to tell). It can be secured with bolts or simple command strips, but your car and the wall will be safe!

Need A Trash Bin? Use Cereal Bins
We throw trash in our cars without thinking about it, but did you know that if you’re not careful, the smells from that trash can linger in your vehicle for a long time? You won’t have that problem if you use a trash can. It’ll be enough to use one of those small cereal-holding plastic containers. To make a small, easily sealed trash can that keeps your car odor-free, simply line it with a plastic bag.

Lessen Frost By Parking Your Car Facing East
Although this may appear to be a strange witchy trick, it is actually quite simple and logical.

Long Ride With A Messy Kid? MagnaDoodle Got You Covered
When taking a long car ride with a young child, there are two obvious issues: they are messy and easily bored. Having a MagnaDoodle in your toy collection can help with both of these issues, thankfully. For starters, they’re one of the most enjoyable toys because children can draw and redraw without running out of (or dropping) materials. They can also be used as a tray table for kids to eat meals from without crumbs and spills all over the place, which you may not realize.

Clean Your Wheels With Cola

You Can Use Pantyhose As A Fan Belt
First and foremost, if you have any other options (such as calling for a tow), you should use them when your fan belt breaks. It’s not worth risking your engine catching fire to save money. If you’re really stuck, a pair of pantyhose can be used as a fan belt to get you to a gas station or an area with cell service where you can get help.

Use Nail Polish On Small Scratches
When your car’s paint gets a small scratch or chip, it’s usually not worth the money to have it professionally repaired. The disadvantage, of course, is that your car will be covered in unsightly scratches. We’re sure you didn’t realize you could do it on your own! Only a smidgeon of nail polish is required. If your car’s paint is close enough in color to match, a little nail polish will hide the scratches well enough that no one will notice them unless they are looking for them.

De-Ice Your Keyholes With Hand Sanitizers
You know how difficult it is to unfreeze frozen car door locks if you’ve ever had them. You may not have guessed it, but the answer is hand sanitizer. Although it may seem counterintuitive to pour something into a broken lock, the alcohol in the solution will melt the ice, allowing you to turn the lock. It will dissolve on your car in the same way that it does on your hands.
De-Ice Your Keyholes With Hand Sanitizers
Keep Your Seats Buckled During Hot Weather
It’s very risky to try to buckle your seatbelt in the summer. Any metal part of your car that has been exposed to sunlight and heat will irritate your hands, but you can avoid the seatbelt issue by buckling it in after exiting the vehicle and leaving it there until you return. It can’t get hot enough to burn if the sun can’t reach it!
Keep Your Seats Buckled During Hot Weather
Use Over-The-Door Shoe Racks As Backseat Organizers
This one is especially useful if you have children: A simple over-the-door shoe rack can hold all of the backseat essentials, including sippy cups, toys, chargers, and snacks. All of the pouches are easily accessible, and they’re far more visible than the pouches that come standard with some minivan seats.
Use Over-The-Door Shoe Racks As Backseat Organizers
Window Chips? Clear Nail Polish Could Help
The magic of nail polish is here to save the day once more! If your windshield develops a crack or chip, it will almost certainly spread and crack further, making driving dangerous. If you can’t afford a new windshield right now, a few drops of clear nail polish applied as a run in a pair of stockings should keep the crack from spreading until you can.
Window Chips? Clear Nail Polish Could Help
You Can Use Rubber Bands As Phone Holders
When you need to look at your GPS but don’t have a co-pilot to hold it up for you or one of those window or air vent holders to hold your phone, it’s extremely inconvenient (and potentially dangerous). It’s actually quite simple to achieve the same result with a rubber band. The tension will keep it in place if you loop it through a couple of vents in your center console and around the top and bottom of your phone.

Put Plastic Bottles On Your Tires
You may have noticed on some cold winter nights that cats often congregate around cars. This is primarily because they try to find warmth near cooling engines. Unfortunately, there are times when we don’t see these cats and there have even been instances where they have gotten stuck in the engine! Simply place a bottle on top of the tire and the cat cannot enter the engine this way. Protect your engine while keeping these cats safe with this simple hack.

Easy Way To Cool Down A Hot Car
Have you ever had to wait outside in the summer for your suffocatingly hot car to cool enough for you to BREATHE once inside? Roll down the passenger side window and open and close the driver’s side door quickly for a few seconds to speed up the process. This creates a fanning effect, allowing fresh air to enter while exhausting the hot, stale air from your vehicle.
Easy Way To Cool Down A Hot Car
Dryer Sheets As Air Freshener
Clip-on or over-the-mirror air fresheners, for example, are a waste of money because they only last a few days. Dryer sheets last much longer, are less noticeable, and effectively absorb odors. They come in scented and unscented varieties and will keep your car smelling great for months.
Dryer Sheets As Air Freshener
The Nanotech Car Scratch Remover Cloth

Check Your Tire’s State With A Penny
The following piece of advice could potentially save your life. Invert a penny and insert it into your tire treads. You’re in good shape if President Lincoln’s head sinks halfway into the hole. You’ll need new tires if the tread on your tires doesn’t cover the president’s head.

Keep Some Kitty Litter In Your Trunk
Even if you don’t have a cat, kitty litter should be kept in your trunk. To get out of a deep snowbank or a slick patch of road, you’ll need extra traction, which kitty litter can provide. Go for a drive after sprinkling some around your tires. It’s best to go with the non-clumping variety.
Keep Some Kitty Litter In Your Trunk

Handy Towel Holder
If you ask us, we believe this is one of the most effective tricks available, particularly for parents of small children. All you have to do is secure a roll of paper towel to your car with a short bungee cord. Instead of searching the entire car for the roll, you can quickly grab the towels. Isn’t it true that every time we get in the car, at least one of our passengers spills something or has a runny nose?

This hack will be useful for people who live in areas where the winters are bitterly cold. If you’ve had to defrost your car in the morning, it’s no laughing matter. Why don’t you give it a shot?

Get More Gas From The Pump
Despite the fact that it appears to be a simple task, there is a better way to pump gas than going full throttle. Bubbles will form in your tank if you just press the gas pump all the way down, fooling the nozzle into thinking it’s full. In reality, there is still room for more gas; all you have to do now is slow down. If you only press the pump halfway, you will have to wait a little longer for the gas to come out, but more will actually go into your tank.

Blow Away Bumper Stickers
You probably have at least one type of bumper sticker on your car if you’re reading this. It turns out that removing them is a lot simpler than you might think.

It’s time to put those 2006 bumper stickers to rest.

Slime Is Your Savior
If Your Tires Blows, DON’T Brake
This is more of a piece of advice than a hack: if your tire blows out while driving at least 65 km/h on a straight road, do not stop. Try to resist the urge, even if it is instinctive. Why are you inquiring? You’ll fishtail and possibly lose control of your vehicle if you hit the brakes, which could result in a collision with anything. Instead, keep your foot firmly planted on the gas pedal. That’s odd, isn’t it? We understand, but this will help you regain control of your vehicle and stay on the road in a straight line. It shouldn’t take more than a few seconds.
If Your Tires Blows, DON’T Brake
Don’t Weigh Down Your Key
This is more of a cautionary statement than a hack. Having too many keys or cute keychains can damage the ignition switch. That is, over time, your car will not start as easily as it should. According to experts, you should have no more than three keys or keychains in your collection. You should take your vehicle to a dealer as soon as possible if you notice a tightness or your key locking while in the ignition. Otherwise, you’ll end up spending a lot of money before you even realize it.
Don’t Weigh Down Your Key

What Side Is The Tank On?
When people come to fill up their gas tank, they frequently “forget” which side their tank is on. What they don’t realize is that the answer has always been right in front of their eyes. Take a quick look at your dashboard’s fuel gauge. You would find a picture of a gas pump with an arrow next to it. Whichever way the arrow points, the side of the car with the filler cap is. Isn’t it fantastic?

Diagnose Your Own Car troubles
The days of wishing you could figure out what was wrong with your car without having to visit a mechanic are long gone. All that’s left to do now is buy an auto-code reader.

Always Keep An Emergency Kit
Without a doubt, every driver should have an emergency kit in their vehicle. A compass, jumper cables, a flashlight, extra batteries, and a first-aid kit should all be included.

You never know when a skill you’ve acquired will be useful!
Always Keep An Emergency Kit
Clean Your AC Vents
On a sweltering hot summer day as well as on a bitterly cold winter day, your car’s air conditioning is a godsend. Most people, on the other hand, overlook the importance of cleaning the car’s air vents. A foam brush, which you can usually find in your local hardware store, is one of the best ways to clean them (from the inside). After that, clean each panel gently. This will not only keep your air conditioning clean and fresh, but it will also make everyone in the car healthier.

Vaseline Tip
Vaseline has been one of the best lifesavers for generations. Not only for colds and flu but for pretty much anything and everything. Have you considered using it for the interior of your vehicle? If you have a vinyl or leather interior, smear Vaseline on a cloth or cotton wool and rub it all over the car to keep the leather from cracking. Vaseline can also be rubbed on rubber door seals to keep them from freezing in the winter.
Vaseline Tip
Avoid Crumbs
Parents with young children are well aware of how filthy cars can become. It’s as if your car has become its own garbage can. Or, even worse, they throw all kinds of things in between the car seats, making cleanup a complete nightmare.

This next tip is more for people who intend on parking their car for a long period of time. However, due to the pandemic and nationwide lockdowns, this can be very handy.

Softer surfaces such as grass or sand can easily allow moisture to level up into your car’s undercarriage, causing rust.
