Greasy film on eyeglasses
08/07/14 at 19:58:01

I have a strange thing happen when I clean my riding glasses or eyeglasses with PJ1 antifog. At night they develop a greasy film. I believe it only happens when the temperature drops below 70°F. And it keeps getting worse the longer I ride. I can't see due to glare from oncoming traffic after 20 minutes of highway riding. Does anyone else have these issues or am I special?

No personal experience, but I read that shaving foam will prevent fogging... (just sounds messy to me)......

If I can't see when it cools down outside, it does me no good. I do use Dawn dish soap on my face shield. It works well for about 3 to 4 hours.

Never tried it on eye glasses, but I use this for diving and it works pretty well especially when you are diving in cold water where the tendency for fog inside the mask is high. Try at your own risk...This stuff is usually 'massaged' into the glass and then lightly rinsed assumingly leaving a light film on the glass.

Rainx also makes an anti-fog for your windshield's interior. That may be worth a try as well.

I have no clue though as I don't ride in conditions where fog is an issue for me.

Good luck!
