Default Binoculars fogging?

How do I keep mi binoculars from fogging up? I am not breathing on them. They seem to fog up just from the warmth and moisture from around my eyes.
Is there an anti fog wipe or other product out there for this?

I believe Walgreens sells a product for eye glasses. I need to get some for my holographic sight. Have used it before and it should solve your problem..........dabow

yes you can go just about anywhere and find a spray for glasses, any type of lens that will keep it from fogging I purchased a bottle of stuff can't rememder the name but I picked it up at walmart(Canadian walmart) and it worked on my glasses because they kept fogging up when I would sweat going to my stand and putting a face mask on.

I use a no fog treated cloth rag that was designed for ski goggles. Becasue it's designed for eye wear I'm not worried about any ill effects from the chemical near my eyes.

Do you happen to be using a facecover or mask of anykind? I notice my binoculars will always fog up in the A.M. if I don't pull down my mask below my nose before I look thru them. Just a thot... Good luck!

I had the same problem with my rifle scope in the past. I bought something called "scope dope" and it seem to clear up my fogging problem pretty fast. I'm sure it works just as good on binoculars as it does on rifle scopes. They sell the stuff at both Galyan's and Cabelas and I'm sure lots of other places.

When I scuba dived years ago we would just spit on the lense and wiped it clean. It worked for that maybe it will work for binocs.

Fieldmouse, I too scuba dive, however, when we spit in our mask it is with clearfog and water in the mask, are you sure you didn't have clear fog? Have I been stupid using clearfog?
