Steamed up "perspex"

One really for PAD4 (especially as I have several of his windows :twisted: ) but I thought that I'd float it on here as it might be of use to someone else.

I have a car with polycarbonate windows that steam up badly (no I don't want to keep my window wide open!!) So is there anything that I can treat them with to prevent this. The interior Rain X is for glass only

Isn't there anti-fog stuff you can get that divers use for inside of their goggles or something? Maybe that will do the job. But maybe goggles these days are coated already, so not sure it is about these days.

Or a skier or indeed a fireman - probably anyone who wears goggles. The stuff I use works really well hot or cold...and goes by the wonderful name .."cat crap".

Cheers, Ian

Fairy Liquid on a rag.
Rub in and rub and rub and rub, etc. until you have a clear screen/window.
There will still be a light trace of detergent on the window which will prevent steaming up.'Not a permanent solution but will easily last 10 laps! ;)

This is about the best thing I've come across for bike visors. It's not perfect but does help.
