That'd make the car stink to high heaven.

It stands for Water Displacement 40.
Water wont settle one it, rub it into your window (not enough to make it smell) & it will stop fogging.

clean your windows.

Steam has less to cling to if the window is clean.

Without turning this into a science thread, what you said isn't entirely true.

also, get something to dry the car out on the inside, like a dehumidifier tub or a old sock full of rice.

Bought a really smaller dehumidifier with silica gel crystals for my Alfa as the frameless windows are ****e and don't seal very well. The amount of window fog is now down to a minimum.

lots of great suggestions

i bought the fog clear and it works a treat, quick wipe when getting in the car and then no fog atall the whole drive

great stuff.... stinks to high hell when you first apply it tho xD

I'll have to give some of these a go, I've been having to de-ice the inside of my windscreen when it's been really cold.

Do not be a tard and do not use wd40.
Christ.

Back in the land of common sense, the time it takes you to apply some product and then buff it to a smear free finish you could have fitted the damn resistor.

Put lightly warm (~20c) water over the screen. Fog disappears nice and quick if the screen isn't so cold.

seriously try the washing up liquid. It works wonders, if it doesn't just reply and slate my advice. It will cost you nothing but 5 mins of your time.

Seriously, why not replace the resistor? It's a 10 minute job :/

Going to try this tonight with my shaving mirror, when I get close it steams up and I cant see...this may be the answer to all my problems!
