Title: How to keep glasses from fogging up
Post by: timberman1979 on January 11, 2023, 10:11:20 AM
Good morning. Just wanting to see if anyone has any tips on keeping glasses from fogging up when wearing a mask? Tried anti-fog, but doesn't seem to work.

A hunting buddy of mine had the same problem.  I gave him a HS Strut 3/4 MESH facemask.  Problem solved   https://www.hsstrut.com/product/3-4-facemask-edge/     Make sure the molded nose piece molds to your nose really well and the mesh will allow your breath to vent away from your face with no condensation on your glasses.

Cat Crap, have some that I got two years ago, use it the beginning of every season and it works for keeping that sweaty steam from coming up, works with breath steam but let as much hot air out from under your mask as you can, makes it work even better.

I tried Cat Crap but I think all the litter scratched the lenses on my glasses.

It was not the Cat Crap that did that, you forgot to remove the cat before you rubbed you face in the box silly!

Age old question here for glasses wearers!! I have tried face paint and several kinds of mask but ultimately have just pulled the mask down under my nose and breath like a normal person! With your head down on the gun where it should be when a gobbler is getting into gun range they will never see that 3 inches of uncovered skin mashed into the gunstock! If you are skeptical  of that rub a lil dirt on the nose - I've had no issues with birds seeing me

Thank you all for the responses. Didn't know if there was something I was missing or didn't know.

I use regular Dawn dish soap. Apply a small amount to front and back of lens with your fingertip, cover complete surface. Allow to dry a few minutes before buffing with a soft cloth. I carry a small square of paper towel soaked in the soap in my vest in case I get into rain or need to re apply. You can dab a small amount of water on it and reapply, last for a few days with no issue for me.

I'm pretty near sighted so I have to wear my glasses or all I see is a blob past 15 yards. I cut a hole in the mouth and nose section of the mask and if possible leave a little room around the nose and cheek for air to pass before going under my glasses. There seems to be a sweet spot on my nose and if I put my mask down to a certain point it doesn't fog as bad.

I honestly asked my eye doctor about doing laser surgery but she said there was no point at my age because my eyes were going to change again in a few years.

I've had great results with "Parker's Perfect" anti fog spray. Been using it for years and it does the job!  :icon_thumright:

Try Opti Plus Anti Fog Lense Wipes. My hunting buddy in Alabama put me on to them. He and his wife fish, a lot, and use them on their sunglasses. They work as well as anything I have ever used, plus clean your glasses at the same time.

The best thing is they're virtually weightless and individually wrapped (think alcohol wipes), so you can carry several with you and reapply as necessary. Available on Amazon, and I am sure, elsewhere.

I use my No-Fog snowmobile face mask, works great. I wear that then put a thin mesh camo face mask over it. Nofogusa.com
