    Default home remedies/ goggle fogging

    Does anyone have a good home remedy to keep goggles from fogging up? I have about 7 driveways that I plow (elderly folks, I don't charge them, but I do get cookies) with a quad, and then mine, then my hurch's parking lot and sidewalks. My goggles are continually fogging up and I can't see. Any fixes?

    like dive masks, baby shampoo... just a very little bit.

    reduces the surface tension of the water vapor to prevent fogging, which is just very little water droplets.

    either that, or commercial antifog MC visor sprays.

    I love the baby shampoo, I had forgotten it!! But I buy this stuff called "Cat Crap" now. 5 bucks for a vile. Last for years. Look it up at Campmor.com

    someone mentioned to me that putting some dish soap on my shooting glasses and then rubbing it in until it's clear again works and I tried it and it indeed does work.

    Thanks ALL. We don't have a baby anymore, and the whole neighborhood doesn't have one either. We are going to go with the dish soap. I appreciate the help. Have a great night. Bob

    Depending on the brand of goggles (Oakley, Smith, Scott) you may be able to get a snowboard lens for it. Oakley O Frame goggles are used by motocross riders and snowboarders. The biggest difference is the lens on the snowboard ones have small vents up at the top along the foam.

    If you have goggles that have the snowboard lens available get one. Lenses for goggles aren't all that expensive and are designed to avoid fogging.

    I use toothpaste for my mask when I dive. There are also some sprays that work. I only use them when its already on the boat though, not something that I think you have to pay for.

    I forget what the chemical is, but there is an actual science to what works.

    It's worked for me as well.
