RangerClay Posted October 6, 2009 Report Share Posted October 6, 2009 I bought a pair of Nikon Team Realtree 10x42 binos. However when I bring them to my face they fog up. What do you use to keep your binos from fogging up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GWSmith Posted October 7, 2009 Report Share Posted October 7, 2009 I'm sure this will freak someone out but it's a widely accepted practice on scuba divers masks. Spit It's only temporary but it's plentiful, consistent, and you dont leave home without it:clown: Use it and wipe it off with a clean cloth(tshirt) and your good for awhile.

dbHunterNY Posted October 7, 2009 Report Share Posted October 7, 2009 When you buy a Nikon scope they package it with a "rain-x" style wipe. Maybe you can come across something like that. I don't know if Rain-X wipes would affect the lens coating, but the ones that come with scopes would be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wyohunter Posted October 13, 2009 Report Share Posted October 13, 2009 i have the same bino's with the same problem, they dont just fog up, but seem to fog up from inside....they work great in good weather, but turn to dodo in cold/snowy/rainy conditions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtnhunt Posted October 14, 2009 Report Share Posted October 14, 2009 Never tried it, but have heard that cat crap is really good stuff http://www.campmor.com/outdoor/gear/Product___83081 there is a spray on too http://www.rei.com/product/752088.

Adjam5 Posted October 21, 2009 Report Share Posted October 21, 2009 I agree with William. Cat Crap is the best stuff I have used to prevent fogging. I wear glasses and heat up pretty good getting to my stand(s), nothing keeps my glasses clear like cat crap. Listen..it is not actually Cat crap. Just the name of the product Silly Gary. I have read that dishwashing soap does the same thing. Rub some on the surface and buff it with a soft lintless rag, and it should provide fog protection til it gets wet.
