pisani34 10 Report post Posted January 7, 2008 i don't know how well this would work but it might....what about saliva?i remember learning that swimmers could spit in their goggles, rub it in and wash it out and that it would keep them from fogging up...maybe it would work with your visor? could be a messy job but...who knows :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gxc999 7 Report post Posted January 7, 2008 I too have this same problem. Although I guess I don't sweat that much, so it isn't fatal or anything, but it's a pain. If anyone finds a unified solution, I would really appreciate it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
strosedefence34 175 Report post Posted January 7, 2008 bird cage, more air flow, no fogging. This is something that effects players world wide. How old is your visor? I assume is a full shield. Maybe try one of the half shield half cage combos. If you get a cage go with a white one or a "true vision" one. Those are the best. You don't even notice them when looking through them.why isn't this in the equipment forum? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If the shield fogs on the bench then just put your face over the boards for a few seconds or wave a little cold air under the shield. The fog will go away.

DBLMINR 0 Report post Posted January 8, 2008 i use these individual wipes called C-Clear, made for safety glasses and such. They have a anti-fog,and anti-static formula on them that seems to work well for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Doctor Hook 0 Report post Posted January 9, 2008 My visor fogged up on the bench from steam rising up into it. Drove me nuts so I switched back to a cage. Best solution. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
forbs02 20 Report post Posted January 9, 2008 Consider pulling your visor further away from your helmet. The sides of the visor have the long channels where the screws go...just loosen them, pull the visor away a bit, and tighten them back down. That will allow some more airflow and should help a little with the fogging. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
willy0314 0 Report post Posted January 9, 2008 I use the spray and never have a problem, and I don't even use the spray every time I skate really. In fact I rarely even bring a cloth onto the bench, If it does get a little wet I'll use my jersey. The only time I'll ever get any fog on the visor is if I unbuckle the strap and prop the helmet up on my head, so the visor is somewhat in my hair.the visor is a Itech Pro wave HS22 half shield.

ktang 34 Report post Posted January 10, 2008 Pledge (the spray) is popular around here, and seems to work pretty well. And, you can shine your helmet at the same time! :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
