If it's fogging, it's either not clean, or you're rinsing out too much defog after you apply it.
More likely than not, it's not clean yet.
You need to clean it really well with either mask cleaner (goopy blue stuff) or toothpaste to get off some type of manufacturing residue (silicone release spray?).
Anyway, until it's really clean, no defog in the world will work.

redhatmama:Defog or not, my mask usually fogs on every dive and I find myself flooding and clearing several times per dive in order to see. It's the OW skill I use the most. I think that regulator retreival while blowing blowing bubbles is an illogical skill. You have an octo very close at hand. It is much easier to grab your octo and breathe from it while you calmly sweep for the reg. There are been instances that divers couldn't find their reg and bolted for the surface, never thinking about breathing from the octo.
