I've been using a similar product for a few years. Sure makes cleaning the windshield easier. I have even attached a skiers no fog cloth to it.

BTW, you can avoid windshield fogging by turning the control to AC and setting the temperature to desired setting (instead of using defrost, which is on-demand). AC isn't just a cold setting. I keep it on all the time, with recirculation. I never get fogged windshield.

When I was scuba diving, spitting into the facemask was a convenient way to prevent fogging. It's not considered polite to spit inside someone else's mask, though. 🙄

I would recommend against spitting on the inside of your windshield, though. The looks people give you!

I've seen so many DIY tips about spraying the inside and the outside of a windshield (like for ice removal). I found nothing that works as well as commercial products.

Oh, golly, I remember spitting in the SCUBA mask! I haven't dived since early 1980s (3 certifications). Thanks for the memory.
