Anti Fog Solutions?

ZanderFTW · January 12th, 2013, 10:27

I bought a used pair of ESS goggles and I've been having trouble with fogging in the games. I don't want to buy a new pair of goggles yet, so don't just mention buy new goggles. Has anyone tried DIY solutions like baby shampoo and water that work. I'm also buying a gen 2 mesh face mask which will hopefully help also. Also, my goggles have a black mesh surrounding the vents, if I remove them will that help with the fog?

Try anti-fog spray, also try breathing differently, like through your nose.

Goggles are different for everybody. Some people have better luck with different kinds.

Rub a drop of dish soap until dry. Seriously, trust me, I also wear glasses.

Fog tech is the best thing I have found short of installing a fan. If you dont have or cant find fog tech then dish soap works very well.

One of the guys on my team had a very small wipe on both sides of the lens wraped around a small magnet when he moves the outside one the inside one would clean the lens. But that is only if you dont mind having a small wipe in your goggle.

+1 on fogtech its cheap, available in wipes works like a charm, i found i didnt have much luck with fans and even the tiny ones get in the way a bit

The Walmart brand anti fog (found close to the hockey gear) works great and is under 5 bucks for double the product of most other brands.
just remember to apply it the night before game day. And if you apply it and end up not playing dont think it will be good to go for next time. I did this once where I applied it to Goggles and never played the sat game, Tried to run the goggles the next weekend and could not see a thing the whole game. Talk about a challenge hahaha.

How about the DIY anti fog solutions, I don't have time to buy stuff because I'm going tomorrow for airsoft. I've heard baby shampoo and water works well.

Well dish soap was already suggested. I've also used potato starch with decent results.half a raw potato and smear the starchy juice all over. Then wait till it is dry am polish the starch into the lens with a micro fiber cloth. Just be sure to was your goggles when done or they may start to stink.

soap works okay but its not ideal, best bet would be to hot the walmart or crappy tire and buy some cheap stuff till u can grab fogtech
