Which anti fog is best?

[crystalball]

Recently in these cold mornings on the way to work my visor has been fogging up. Starts from the outer edges and creeps inwards. open visor to clear it and then after a while starts to do the same thing again. Also been leaving visor partly open as get sick off opening and shutting it. get teary eyes tho lol. I have always used rain x, anti fog and rain x anti rain. but hasint helped much recently with the cold weather. Been thinking off getting some cat crap and give that a go. any one know off the perfect solution. :gob:

Some years ago, after gentle encouragement, I learned how to breathe through my ears. Among other things, I find that this is a particularly useful skill for riding motorcycles with my visor closed on cold winter's mornings.

I don't quite do that however I do breath through my nose gently until I get on the motorway and the helmet's airflow system takes care of the rest :yes:

One prefers the term "endowed".

http://www.fogtech.com/ and it works pretty well as long as you don't touch it / wipe it once it's on. Also got the raincoat solution too. No complaints and it arrived in the post in about 10 days. :woohoo:

+1 for pinlock

+2 for a pinlock. But Before I found Pinlocks, I used Foggoff. Works the same as rainex, but on the inside of the visor. It has been said before, that Catcrap works wonders too.

I use a stickon anti fog thingy made by Fogcity. Got it from Botany honda. Stops fogging but does cause some vision distortion particularly at dusk.
Dont pinlocks only fit certain brands of helmet?

Sunnys a balaclava and the visor cracked up one notch. No fog and no dust in the -2 degree early morning rides! In my old helmet I used the old liquid soap coating and that worked great!!

++ for Pinlocks:yes: Tried some anti-fogging stuff in the states...never worked...:angry:

Depends on how handy you are with a drill and marking scribe. I have a HJC which didn't come with the Pinlock hole but they are there now, have not had any problem since installed except when I took it off for cleaning and didnt quite get it back on right the first time, realigned and all good again. Would not have another helmet without one even if I have to do it again myself.

Pinlock, end of story, no more messing about. So long as they are fitting properly.
Plus you will get the girls. Oh yeah

The pinlock inserts I have used have all been clear so no problem at night.

I have used the stick on fog city thing in the past and it went opaque after a while and was like looking through frosted glass.

My current helmet and the previous one I got a Shoei pinlock insert which comes with the pins in the packet. Took about 10 minutes to mark and drill the visor to fit the pins and then the insert just clips in. Works brilliantly.
