Glad to see somebody using the tip to clean the foggy headlamps which would
improve the safety of the night time driving.  Actually a VW regional
service rep. did this on my headlamps when I complained about the foggy
headlight lens several years ago.  I thought it was very effective and
passed on to the list.  Of course don't let your fingers to touch the glass
of the light bulb and the very fragile chrome reflector during the process.
