for headlights to get bugs off use the bag avacados come in, works really well and dosen't scratch

No, don't do that stuff. Get a dedicated metal polish. Mother's works great, Adams works great. The Meguires stuff I had failed, as did a metal cleaner that I used to use on RC cars. Anything else and you risk seriously messing up your exhaust tips.
