    I don't think any of that stuff really works. The best thing you can do for fogging is keep the glass squeaky clean, the more dirty it is the easier it fogs.

    •NASA used anti-fog solutions on the astronauts' helmet visors...
    -Being that many of the "inventions" of the Space Program are now in use for many Consumer products:
    -It's possible that these same, or similar, anti-fog agents are being used for auto-glass applications.

    •If that's the case:
    -Stoners Anti-Fog may contain one or more of these anti-fogging agents {maybe its MSDS would tell-the-tale }

    •Questions:
    -What are the names of the different anti-fog agents?

    -Can any of the following be considered anti-fog agents?
    a.) I used to use foamy shave cream as an anti-fog agent.
    b.) I've never tried spit (saliva)...like the divers do on their goggles.

    Anti-fog products do work, at least some of them, to some extent. To my knowledge, none of the consumer products are based on anything that came from the space program!

    Believe it or not, anti-fog glass cleaners work in precisely the way which I have described as happening with many 'LSP strippers' - they intentionally leave (in this case, a very specific) residue behind. So, in actual fact, excessive wiping or buffing of this product class will be expected to diminish the performance. Unfortunately, there are some products on the market which are (I would presume) using silicone based technologies and these look fine, until you get intense lights shining on them, at all manner of angles - they start to look oily or smeary. This has led to some people thinking that these products need to be buffed within an inch of their lives when the reality is that this is only necessary when a product isn't really optimised for use on a windshield.

    ^^^I will have to politely beg to differ.^^^

    There are (literally) thousands of them!
    For example:
    •NASA Technology Transfer Program
    - NASA Technology Transfer Portal
    - NASA Spinoff Homepage
