In most climates the temperature outside of your vehicle is not the temperature you want to experience on the inside. Mix these differences with a little moisture and you will have a foggy windshield that will require you to get rid of the fog before you head out for work. Unless you are someone who typically leaves time in your morning routine for defogging the windshield you won’t want to deal with this at all. The choices you have are to either spend a little time waiting for the fog to clear (not appealing), wipe the windshield with your sleeve and head out (this usually leaves to impaired visibility so this is dangerous), or you can fogproof your windshield ahead of time and be on your way (this is the way to go).

All you need to fogproof your windshield is some simple shaving cream and a few towels. Shaving cream has elements in it that prevent moisture of varying temperatures from fogging up the window and will make it much easier for you to get in your car and head out for the day. This could even be useful in the bathroom where you could fogproof the mirror so you can have a clear mirror after your shower, but we are discussing your windshield so let’s start there.

With a generous amount of shaving cream use one towel to apply the shaving cream to the entire windshield on the inside in a thick layer. Using another towel rub the shaving cream into the windshield. This may take several towels, but you want to rub in the shaving cream until its all gone and the windshield is once again clean and clear. Before you go about performing this task you should consider cleaning the windshield thoroughly to make sure you start with a clean surface.

Once you have rubbed the shaving cream to the point the windshield is once again clean and clear its now fogproof. You can test this by putting a hot cup of coffee in the dashboard on a cold morning and seeing that no fog will occur. Now that you have saved yourself some time in the car, you might want to apply this same principle to your bathroom mirror and see how you can have a clean and clear mirror right out of the hot steamy shower. Both of these glass surfaces can help you save time in the morning by just being clear of the fog you were used to before.
