Glasses fogging problem

Montana Bob · 10-11-2006, 04:34 PM

Went back to wearing glasses after having contact lens for years and can't seem to find any good anti fogging stuff.
Yah tried the cat crap and it don't work worth a damn. Anyone got some good stuff they know about That works.
Winter is comming and I hike from hell and back and everytime I stop the heat from my body will fog my len's everytime.

I have the same trouble during early bow season. I have to take my glasses off when I get into the stand for about 30 minutes until I cool off enough for them not to fog up. Plus when I am wearing a full face head net they fog up too.

I have gotten our whole camp to start using the scott no fog cloths that you can find at the ski shops or the like. We use em on the scopes, binocularsand the glasses. Simply fog em up with your breath, then take the cloth and buff em clean. Good for the entire day

I too where glasses and had some problems at opening of bow season. I ordered a gel that comes in a container similar to film canister. I it is called C-Clear available at www.c-clear.biz. Have not tried yet but will next week. We will also try for skin and scuba

You might want to try a rather neat and inexpensive trick we've been using for years....using your fingers, daba tiny bit ofconcentrated dish washing liquid (we use a clear liquid, like Dawn) on both sides of the lens, spread a thin filmoverthe surfaces of both sidesand then wipe the lens clean (do NOT rinse) and buff dry; the thin film of soap breaks up water molecules and noticeably reduces fogging. Although it may not work as well as some of the commercial products specifically designed for de-fogging lens (especially if you wear a full head net), it sure does work well enough it most instances to make it worth spending the 30 seconds or so to do... and basically costs nothing.

Well making the big 85 mile trip into town to go Bear hunting this weekend and guess I will stop at Sportsmans Warehouse and see what they got at the optics counter. Will check into the C-Clear stuff.
