hello everyone!
oh crap!
Where i live it's mandatory to wear a face mask at all time in public areas
and as well as in my open space at work.
As you probably notice i wear glasses
and I assume you do too since you clicked on that video
Wearing a mask with glasses can be very troublesome due to the fog
However i'm a scuba diver and defogging my mask
-like my scuba mask-
is one of the first skills we learn in scuba diving training.
the fog is created when hot humid air: your breath in this case
comes in contact with a cold surface: your glasses.
To prevent that you need to add a coating onto the glass.
There are a couple of tools we use in scuba diving to avoid fog to build up no mask
the first and most common is spitting in your mask
you have probably seen that a lot if you look into scuba diving.
It's also less COVID friendly
so i would advise you not to do that in public area, do that at home.
You can also use dish soap, baby shampoo, toothpaste
some specific product that you can find on scuba diving shops.
And today I wanted to know which one are the most useful for the glasses
so i've got myself four pairs of glasses
these three ones
i found on a donation site called Geev
And these are my regular glasses that i wear
all the time
None of them have any coating for fog
and i will have a different treatment on each one
so let's start with the test
i'm starting with ... dish soap
the goal is to coat the inside of the glasses
and also a bit of the outside
cleaning up nicely
and let them on the side to dry
we'll do the same with toothpaste
I am not sponsored by any brand
I just choose what i had at my house
coat the inside
clean it up
so right off the bat i don't like this one very much because
the toothpaste gets inside
the lens and it's hard to clean
now with the spit
It's disgusting but it's my favorite thing to do in scuba diving
it's the most effective so i'm excited to see how it goes
and now, the...
Special liquid i got
I'm not a big fan of that because it tends to sting the eye but we'll see
and now let everything dry off
For the results let's try with the dish...
oh oh ! i'm quite... i wasn't expecting that
we are off to go start!
now the second one is toothpaste
nope nope it doesn't work
now for the spit which is
for me the most efficient way to do it in scuba diving
no no it doesn't work
and the last one...
ah yeah maybe, kinda, a bit
Now if we look all of them at the same time
We can see that the dish stop was the most effective
I was not expecting that
But here it is!
Have you ever tried any of these coating ingredients for your glasses?
If you did some different please let me know in the comment section
