The woman – who goes by @huyameishuoche on the platform – says: “There are scratches on the car body, squeeze on toothpaste.”
She can then be seen applying the paste onto the scratches and wiping them with a cloth and revealing that they have completely disappeared.
Toothpaste sells for just £1 at B&M making this cleaning method an affordable option.
This isn’t the only car cleaning advice @huyameishuoche shares as in the same video she shows how to clean a yellow wheel hub.
“All you need is some toilet cleaning liquid”, she says and she sprays the liquid onto the wheel before rinsing it with water.
She adds that if your headlights are becoming “yellow and unclear” then driving at night can be “dangerous”.
She suggests pouring beer and coca-cola over them at the same time and then wiping clean.
In a separate video the motor enthusiast reveals a hidden button that can help drivers if they become locked out of their vehicle.
The button is located inside the door handle and can open the door if the car keys stop working.
Then she says: “The car key is out of power and the door cannot be opened, pop out the mechanical key, aim at the small hole under the door handle, pry open and find the lock.
“Put the key in and turn it, the car door opened.”
Other tips the woman shares include how to adjust mirrors so they are at their most effective and how to reverse more safely.
To be able to see as much as possible in the mirror she says: “Adjust the left door handle to the lower right corner of the rear view mirror, move the right door handle to the lower left corner of the right rear view mirror.
“At this time the view of the rearview mirror is best.”
And her top tip on reversing is to stare at the middle of the front door handle.
When it coincides with the steps on the road behind it means the rear of the car is exactly 30 centimetres away from the steps.
