Need Helmet defogger...

[Bonniele]

I have glass cleaner for my glasses but it doesn't seem to work on the helmet shield. Any suggestions. Tried diff things...does anything work on both? Lots of humidity in Humboldt County, Ca.

Spit..!!l

They sell defogger sprays in many bike shops. In the old days we used to spit and wipe especially in the desert crossings where a closed helmet is cooler than an open one or jungle racing, the amazon can get humid. Try the spray...:thumbup:

Get a pinloc visor for your helmet and you will be good to go!

I picked up some of this company's products at the motorcycle show that was in Atlanta.

I find Cat Crap works really well.

Shaving foam and some soaps will work for a short while. I shave in the shower and the mirrow fogs instantly till I rub a bit of soap on it. Soap works better than the shave foam.

Are you able to simply leave your visor cracked upen a little bit? Often; you just need a bit of airflow to keep things clear. :shocked:

All i do is flip the shield up a little and that defogs it.:dontknow:

...And a little fresh air helps to stifle the feelings of Claustrophobia... :shocked:

I have used this for years on my finest hunting optics and the last few years on my face shield and it works great. I will also use it on my hunting blind windows. You can buy them on line or at Cabelas or Gander Mountain. They have several packets per envelop and one wipe lasts the entire season on my helmet. They are reusable.

I see my pic didn't post but they are Nikon Fog Eliminator wipes. They come in a 3 pack and the part number is 8073.

I have tried most of the products around and none work on my glasses for any length of time. Now my shield on my helmut has anti fog treatment and it works fine.

Manure keeps the flies off too, I hear!

My husband got sea gull drops on his shoulder and back in the parking lot of Costco. But it hardened quickly in the breeze.:yikes:

I do that but with almost 80 - 100% humidity...it still foggs...especially when it is colder (normal for here). We are right by the ocean and don't have the warmth of :sour:mid and southern Calif

Thanks, everyone. Will give some of these a try.

Thanks, everyone. Will give some of these a try. Believe it or not...we have two bike shops here but one doesn't have much and the other is a H.D. with the prices to prove it. Going to Redding, CA next week...will look there. Thanks..

Oh darn...and my cat died two years ago. I thought she was worthless as a hunter but lovable nevertheless...and to think she could have been useful just makes me sad I missed her one opportunity in life!

Pinloc shields and other secondary inner shields are the best method. A helmet with a good fog-free shield is next. I have found the Scorpion helmet shields to be the best in this department. Nowhere near as effective as the pinlocs, though. There are a wide variety of fog-free sprays and "waxes" on the market. They all claim to be the best, and may or may not work in varying degrees, depending on your particular conditions as well as the product. Expect to try a few before you find one you like. If your problem is misting on the outside, try gloves with a chamois thumb or a thumb squeegee. Best of luck in your quest.

Try this. http://303products.com/product-uses/plexiglass


But use it like the old Brill Cream add (a little dab will do) when using it on a visor. If you try it. Remember to buff the shield with a soft cloth until you can't see swirl marks anymore. This product has been used on aircraft windshields for years for a reason.
