RainX as defog
I heard anecdotally about using RainX as a defog,and was curious if anybody has used it. I am reluctant to experiment because it is easy to apply and buff off on my wife's car,but very difficult on my car.

I would be carefull of anything near your eyes Kelly. I tried commercial cleaner for reading glasses and ended up calling the dive when the water got in my mask and the stuff got in the water. It really burned my eyes. Cindy Butler

I second it could be hard on the eyes.
Also after using it on car wind shields, just seems like I start getting stone chips. Always wondered if it weakened the glass.
Let us know how it works if you do it!!
Cheers!!

I have used baby shampoo for years and it works like a charm.

I always heard what they put in baby shampoo for the "no more tears" is actually hard on the eyes.Originally Posted by Jim Wyatt

DON'T!!!!! The voice of experience. I tried it last year, and all I got was fog on the inside of my mast for two months. Seems like nothing would take the stuff off. My favorite is PSI mask defog. Once it is imbedded into your mask, you only need it once a day. Stuff is line toothpaste, and dries white after the dive...Ken
Its a myth. From the Johnsons FAQ:
I received an email that said the reason why JOHNSON´S® Baby Shampoo was gentle to the eyes was because it contains numbing agents that numbs the eyes if contact occurs.
The assertion that chemicals are added that numb the baby's eyes is totally false. The reason JOHNSON´S® shampoo formulas do not irritate the eyes is the mildness of the formulation, which has undergone extensive clinical testing and has proven to be as gentle to the eyes as pure water.
I have used baby shampoo for quite a few years as well.....but we all know what the best defog is.......

Everyone spends the first nine months of life in water. The lucky ones make frequent return visits.
Well if Jim and you have been using it for years, I guess I can too...
