how to prevent fog in oakleys?

[Midget]

I've had my oakley "minutes" for almost a day now.


how do you prevent these from fogging up?

What are you doing that would cause it to fog up. I have 2 pairs of Oakleys and they don't fog up.

When I leave my Oakley's in the car during cold nights/mornings and then go driving and put them on they fog up because they are cold and I'm a lot warmer. What I do then is turn the heat on and put them next to the vent to help match the temperatures, but I don't really know what to do about fog, I just know that in my case this is what works.

Take some dish soap (palmolive, etc) and rub it on the inside with your finger. Then take a dry cloth and "polish" it off. I do this to prevent fogging of swim goggles and also to my prescription glasses when I hunt. It will last a week or more usually.

I like to use CatCrap, which is a wax you can buy at the higer end sunglass stores. It not only prevents the fogging, but is sort of like Rain-X for glasses. It also helps decrease the amount of cleaning you need to do.

It is the BEST for anti fog. I used to use it on my glasses while competing in Biatholon. -10 F, X-country skiing, glasses fogged. Cat Crap ended that.

It made by EK, the guys that make Cat Straps.

Good Evening All-

You can avoid fogging by preventing sudden changes in temperature and humidity. Sunglasses shouldn't be stored in your car, but taken inside. If you put them on your warm head at room temperature and then step outside to your cold car, they shouldn't fog...your head will keep the plastic warm enough.

CatCrap is good stuff. If it is unbelievably humid outside you might be up a creek without a paddle. Your solution then is to rinse the glasses under tepid water and dry with a soft, lint-free cloth. NEVER wipe a dry lens that hasn't been cleaned. If there are any particles, you'll get scratches as sure as God made apples.

Have you tried this Catcrap on binoculars? Binocs fogged when I needed them in a
bad situation. It was a quick temp change thing with them.
It will probably never happen again but the stuff sounds worth having.
