Anti-perspirant to prevent goggle fogging/blurring?
 
Has anyone here tried using Anti-perspirant to the area where you cover your goggle as a way to reduce fogging and blurring?

I know you guys are going to give me the answer of using
anti-fog wipe
goggle with fan
remove the foam on the top of goggle (dust protection)

However, I've tried all three, and my goggle is still going to blur up. Basically it won't fog but condensate into water on the lens instead.

You mean rub some old spice all over your lens?

I do plan on doing that on my tomorrow game, I tried that today when I work out, it was fine.

the SECRET is to not use any wipe at all, just the anti-fog fluid (many will work, fogtech is still better than dishwashing liquid), and let the fluid flow and coat the whole lens : you need to turn the lens and slide the tip of the bottle on it so that the coat is homogenous with no drying marks. Let it dry and DO NOT wipe.
If you are doing this, say on a Bolle lens for example, start in the middle, extend to one side, and do the other side starting in the middle again: the mark will be in the middle where your eyes can't see it.
Do not touch the resulting coat.
You will get absolutely ZERO fogging or blurring.

also you need to block the sweat from your forehead.headband.

Sweatband is a good idea. My Bolle x800 don't fog (good anti fog coating) but I will have sweat running through them from my forehead.

Some folks say putting bandaids under your eyes or on your nose helps.

Use dish detergent. Rub it onto the lens and let dry. Wipe of excess and polish the lens. It's cheap to do and leaves your lens smelling lemony fresh.

Just take the lenses off, no fog at all. :) lol

HKGhost July 17th, 2011 13:00

Yes, and use your eyes to stop the bbs. :D

Apply anti-fog agent (Go Fogtech!) as if you were painting, not rubbing the surface. Do not touch or wet the surface afterward.

Make sure you remove all foam around your goggles if you have any to help ventilation.

This works. You can use the same for those who wear regular glasses.

Hello Ladies: look at your goggles, now back to mine, now back to your goggles, now back to mine. Sadly, your goggles are not mine, but if you started to use Old Spice antiperserant, your goggles could Smell like mine.

I'm on a horse

Priceless :D

Apply some shaving cream to your lense and rub it in until it 'disappears'. You can try this on your bathroom mirror, you'll see that the part you applied shaving cream to will not fog up.

I personally prefer this method to the dish soap method which is, ironically, a lot messier.

I prefer the paste style anti-fog, namely Cat-Shit brand (no, it's not real cat shit). I find the pastes work better for the rubbing in and letting dry than a spray (there is just too much carrier/water to evaporate cleanly)

Look down, look up: where are you? You're at an airsoft field With the Goggles Your Goggles could Smell Like. What's in your hands? I have it right here: it's an airsoft grenade with the pin still in it. Look again! The Grenade is Now a Tomahawk! Anything can happen when your goggles smells like fear and not like sanitation. I'm on a jackalope.
