Homemade Defog

[Blackhawk9898]

I was wondering if anybody had some defog recipes that they would like to share.

I make my own on the spot... spit.

I've heard about this, and saw Marvel use some recently on my trip to FLL.

Honestly, commercial defog is like $4 for a bottle that lasts forever... so I just use that these days.

Simplest recipe: buy a bottle of Johnson's & Johnson's Baby Shampoo.

Next simplest: dilute baby shampoo with water.

My preferred recipe: 50/50 mixture of rubbing alcohol and J&J Baby Shampoo. I use silicone grease on my moustache and the alcohol helps clean any residue off the mask.

I just baby shampoo full strength. Put a drop on a clean dry mask, let it dry and rinse when ready to use. At a couple of bucks for 12oz it super cheap and works better than most of the "real" defogs. I refill old eye drop bottles (Visine and similar products) with the shampoo and relabel them as defog.

I'm with UP on this one - spit (although someone gave me a bottle of Sea Drops in Hawaii - it's about as good as spit if I remember to take it with me!)

I have heard baby shampoo does a good job. I prefer Sea Drops by McNett myself. I tried the Sea Gold but it was so thick it distorted my vision and then if I rinsed to much out it didn't work. I could never get the right balance. Love the Sea Drops......

because I teach in a pool a lot I have a lot of fogging problems due to the suncream that floats on the top.

I installed one of those liquid bathroom soap dispensers on the side of the pool, and it works a treat. All defog is is soap. I like the baby shampoo idea because of the no more tears thing.

I also use the baby shampoo for my drysuit sleeves and neck.
