Dan: Not sure if that would work out in the shop. p.s. most optometric stores have a silicone cloth that is real cheap or free. -- A mind, like a home, is furnished by its owner |

I have done the spit thing with a scuba mask, never with safety glasses. Might just work. Another thing I have heard of is to rub the inside of the glasses with the cut surface of a potato and then buff out dry with a cotton cloth. I’m going to try the soap too. -- "Bordnerizing" perfectly good lumber for over a decade. |

Hmmm. They used to sell some wipes on the street corners in Hawaii to keep glasses from fogging up. I wonder what was in them. -- We must guard our enthusiasm as we would our life - James Krenov |

As a diver, I spit in my mask…. As a firefighter, I just give my mask of blast of cold air from my bypass valve….. As a Haz-Mat tech, we use a VERY thin coat of dish soap on the inside of our suits (take a papertowel and put just a few drop on it and kinda squish it around and then wipe on) As a paramedic, I just suffer thru the fog of my safety glasses There are comercial wipes out there to help with the fog, check the optical shop at walmart of your optomatrist -- Adrian .....

Shaving foam. Wipe on, buff off. It works on mirrors… should work on glass too. I’ll have to try the dish soap, we actually have that in the house. (I can’t believe all the chemicals they “hide” in shaving cream, things I’d rather not put down the sink.) -- I am always doing what I cannot do yet, in order to learn how to do it. - Vincent Van Gogh -- http://snbcreative.wordpress.com/ |

Total side note, try shaving with Noxema (Knocks eczema, get it?). Probably only slightly less full of noxious chemicals than the foam. A little dab will do ya and it doesn’t take up much room in a Dopp kit. -- "Bordnerizing" perfectly good lumber for over a decade. |

Take this with a grain of salt, because I have not tried it to see if it works… I have heard in the past that (used) dryer sheets rubbed in the lenses will keep them from fogging. Seems worth a try since you probably have them on hand. If you try it, let us know if it works! -- Mark, Webster New York, Visit my website at http://thecraftsmanspath.com |
