I'm old,been at this a long time, I use a 60/40 mix any no tears baby shampoo cut with rubbing alcohol. Most baby shampoo is sold in a 15oz bottles today, just pour out 5oz and fill with rubbing alcohol, works as a suit cleaner also..........>
OLD DIVER

Rubbing alcohol... near my eyes? I'll pass.
 
Early AM sea drops, followed by water in mask bucket.

I also change the water in the mask bucket after each dive. I don't need everyone else's spit all over my mask

If I don't have my own mask defog, I cancel the dive. I defog my mask before each dive.
 
If I don't have mask defog before the dive, I'm obviously dehydrated.

"Rubbing alcohol"?? That's just crazy talk. Borax is better. :acid::acid:
 
Personally I have never had problems with fogging. I took a lighter and singed the glass of the mask all the way till it was black. Then i used the white toothpaste and cleaned it. Never had it fog up. I might remember to spit it in, but normally I just put it on and go diving. It lives in the pocket of my fins between dives.
