Anti Fog trick

So, don't I have to open the vents to allow ventilation? If so, my face would feel cold, yes? Yesterday, I was freezing when I did the above experiment.

How would I have ventilation, prevent fogging and not feel cold in my face all at the same time?

Water vapor from your breath has to go somewhere. It's not going to leave the helmet if you don't crack a vent. That's probably why most people that use the wipes I do only get them to last for a third of time that they do for me. Air will always come in under your chin since there's a gap there. Shoei has a nice little windbreaker insert that goes in there to block the force of the wind but it still allows ventilation.

Then again, if you don't want your face to be cold, don't ride in the winter. :2cents
 
Instead of spending money on shaving cream, use spit. Not a big luggie, just some saliva, rub it around with your fingers and dab off the excess. Been using this trick hundreds of times over 11 years on my helmet and even longer with my dive mask. Never had to try anything else since it works and the price is nice.

The added benefit is that is creeps out my coworkers.

Especially effective if you chew. :teeth
 
Dog shit is the best anti-fog substance.

You only need to apply once and your visor will be fog free forever. It has something to do with the natural oils found in the canine intestinal tract. You can't argue with science. :party

...OR you can just crack your visor.


Express the anal glands and get the pure shit. Not as messy.
 
ok, went thru all the comments and decided to try the fog-tech first, will let you know the first day possible, probably Thursday the 13th
