They said colgate in another forum. I think you're just wasting your time with toothpaste.

Maybe it's the extra-whitening stuff.

It really depends on how oxidized your headlights are. But normally it would be wetsand, compound, polish and put uv protection. Nowadays you can apply ceramic coating or ppf on your headlights. lasts up to 5 years. good investment.
