Primate 0 #1 July 18, 2001 Anyone have a home remedy antifog solution for visors that works really really good? I've been trying to find something on the net but I can't find crappola.Primate Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jumperpaula 0 #3 July 18, 2001 My son's paintball newsgroup recommends a very small amount of baby shampoo mixed with water. I haven't tried it, but it's an idea. Fly Your Slot ! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sinister69 0 #4 July 18, 2001 I am also a scuba diver. If we are out of the anti fog creme that you put in your masks, you can always spit in your goggles, rub it around, then clean em off. it works wonders. My suggestion though is to find a SCUBA shop around and buy some of the anti-fog creme.Blue Skies!Sinister69http://home.pacbell.net/n1elson1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DBTECH 0 #5 July 18, 2001 Until exit--breathe in through your nose, and exhale the "now humid air" out your mouth, through the helmet vent---works good. This technique purges the helmet with outside air only, and prevents fogging.Helmet visors tend to remain clear after exit--I believe because of the high airspeed-purging effect.Dave Brownell Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cameramonkey 0 #7 July 18, 2001 Just be careful whatever you use. Remember that some chemicals can cause lexan, and similar clear plastics to break down and either scratch very easily (if you are lucky) or as bad as causing the plastic to frost and become semi opaque.

ClayFowler 0 #8 July 19, 2001 I use furniture polish on my airplane windshield. It leaves a fresh lemmony scent and no streaks. Makes water bead great too for those rainy day jumps. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GrumpySmurf 0 #10 July 19, 2001 If there is a mid to large size paintball field near you - you might want to give them a call. Alot of rec players still use single pane goggles (non-thermals), and use anti-fog spray for them - larger fields will have a pro-shop with equipment for sale, possibly including anti-fog spray. Paintball goggle lenses are poly-carb (lexan) like skydiving goggles, and shouldn't have a problem with the spray. As for alternative solutions, I have a feeling you'll end up scratching the crap out of your goggles long before any chem destroys them - I'd be more worried about the chem getting into my eyes - especially in freefall - the super diluted no-tears shampoo sounds like it might be worth a shot *shrug*.

Dutchboy 0 #11 July 19, 2001 Best solution, buy a Z1 and keep the visor open until the door is open.I have anti-fog spray that I use on swimming goggles that would probably work if you don't follow the suggestion above.The Dutchboyhttp://www.geocities.com/ppolstra Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
