How to Clean Fog From Inside Window Glass
Fog inside car windows is a safety issue and can be resolved using many common items found around the home. To reduce and remove fog from car windows, learn how to clean fog from inside window glass for safe driving conditions.
Things You'll Need:
- Defroster
- Air conditioning
- Vinegar
- Baby shampoo
- Dish soap
- Microfiber cloth
- Paper towels
Start your car and roll up any open windows. If you have a defroster or defogger in the car, turn it on. Movable vents should be pointed towards the windows. Work on the windshield first since it is the largest sized window to defog and takes the longest to clear. Turn the air conditioning on in the car if this is an option. Air conditioning dehumidifies the air and quickly removes fog.
Wipe the inside of the windshield down using paper towels to remove condensation. Pour a small amount of baby shampoo over a clean rag and wipe it across the inside of the glass. Use a wet rag or microfiber cloth and wipe off the window. Some of the baby shampoo will leave a residue that helps prevent windows from fogging in the future. Finish working on one window to prevent shampoo from drying too quickly, and then proceed to the next window.
- Use other home remedies to clear fog from inside window glass, if you have no baby shampoo. Mix a solution of half water and half vinegar. Rub the window with the solution and wipe it down a second time using a wet rag. Mixing dish soap and hot water is another method for removing fog from car windows using the same application.
