Default Fogged up

Went for a short 20 mile ride just for the hell of it.. It was 44 and I have a low screen so I started out wearing my half mask and didn't make it to the end of the driveway before I couldn't see a damn thing.. Tore it off and went rudolph style.. What do you guys use if anything to keep the fog at bay.. I by no means have top of the line glasses but I've never been able to find the right set up to keep me seeing clear

I use Cat Crap on the inside of my FF helmet visor. I never get fogged up even when it's really cold.

Soap works good for me. Either bar soap dry and rub it all over the inside, then use a soft cloth to wipe it off, I have also used shaving cream, and baby shampoo after one time it was raining and cold and I cracked the visor and some rain mixed with the soap. I thought Umm I can smell the soap if that got in my eyes it would burn, so I changed to baby shampoo. However it is something you have to reapply every couple of days but it worked for me.

To test what you think might work, get a small mirror in the shore, and turn on the hot water, put something on mirror or glass and see how a lot of things will keep the steam at bay.

I have glasses by 7eye. It has the foam insert, so I think that helps with the fogging. I rode the other day at about 48* with my half mask and no fogging.

I use Biltwell goggles no fog, but they are big. I have used shaving cream on my goggles and glasses before that works also.
