    I just used some coconut oil last night, to cook some bell peppers and onions to make fajitas. They were awesome! I will be using this more in cooking. I already use it in my beauty products, and when I make soap for the laundry.

    I love this site! Thank you for all the information.

    Okay so it’s cool that coconut oil is so useful and can help you clean your car, but how much do you use for each of these tasks? I don’t want to end up using too much and risk damaging the car you know.

    I didn’t know that coconut oil had so many uses. I will have to try shining my tires with coconut oil. Recently I bought a new car and I want to take good care of it. This is helpful. Thanks for sharing.

    Do you mix the oil with something else or just use it straight? And can you use any version (cheapest)? We own detail shop and would like to implement this!

      Hi there! I just used it straight and yes, you don’t need fancy oil for this. Keep it cheap! 😉

    I live in Alaska…..I put coconut oil on the trim/rubber so that the car doors don’t freeze shut.

    Used it on the plastic and rubber on my jet skis. It cleans, protects, and repels water. Gives it a new appearance and awesome shine. Buff off any excess and good to go. Way cheaper and probably much better for plastic and vinyl than any automotive products bought at a big box store.

      This could certainly work! I would clean it with club soda first and then apply a layer of coconut oil. The only downside to coconut oil (versus Vaseline) is that it isn’t quite the same thickness so you may need to reapply more often.
