Anti-fog your car windows
by David Toht
It comes on little cat feet, the fog that obscures your vision through you car windows and only clears with a time-consuming blast of the defroster. In the winter it turns to frost — a mess to scrape and a real drag on your morning departure.
It need not be so. By applying an anti-fog treatment to the inside of your car windows, you can dramatically reduce condensation and frost.
