Crazy as this sounds, clean it really well! I have spent my whole life in better than 80% humidity and windows are always fogged up. Clean them off and the defroster doesn't have to work as hard. If you have the option, push the a/c button to turn that on when it is running. Removes humidity from blown air.


This won't be too expensive Dear! That's what I keep saying. Over and over again.
 
Have you tried rain-x? I've used it on the inside and outside of my windshield, it helps for a while, but you have to re-apply it every month or so.

Great one there as well. If you weren't in contact with salt spray, it helps a lot too!

You could move to Minnesota, the humidity is much lower here this time of year. :eek: :cool:
 
LMAO!!!! turn the A/C botton on............. I have an 81 jeep with a bikini top and half doors. Are you kidding me? Yea I did the rain ex both inside and outside. I got swallowed up in fog this morning going over the bridge from panama city to the beach.
 
Run with the windshield down problem solved :D

I though you were referring to your dodge. You drive a Jeep Man, in South Florida no less! Get polarized sunglasses and deal with it! LOL!

I'm afraid you're not getting a lot of sympathy from us guys in cooler regions. The beaches here are under two feet of ice!
Jealousy is an ugly thing:D
 
Well I'll tag along looking for answers. I already know my defroster duct is probably shot, those defrosters don't do much.
 
I always have a towel with me in the jeep.
 
LMAO!!! Sorry guys up north :) It was 72 today. I'm just gonna carry a towel with me.
 
I think Rainex and a towel is about as good as it gets. Fogging is just humidity and temperature getting together and we can't change that. Enjoy that warm weather!

Forecasting -28 for Monday

2feet of ice is plenty for ice fishing! :D
 
I picked up some of the Rain-X anti fog wipes for the inside of the glass, regular old Rain-X for the outside. It does an alright job for what it is, it will atleast cut down the need for the towel some... doesn't work as well as a good defrost system but I doubt you will be getting one of those in there anytime soon.

Ha! I used to drive my old Willys Pickup with an ice scraper in one hand! :)
