I can see again!!

10 minutes rubbing the inside of my goggles with a chlorox wipe, and the "anti-fog" coating is now gone. Now I can see again!

I'll try that with my fastskins tonight, they're smudged to hell. Only wore them once, and they're unusable...

Ooooh, I need to try that. After a long while my swedix does get these cloudy smudges on the inside of the goggles and I thought I tried just about everything. Gonna try it tonight!!

Did you rinse out the goggle after the wipe? Just curious seems like it might be a little 'fumerus' and bother the eyes if there were a film of chlorox left in there? I'm gonna try this tonight!

I just did it, so I haven't taken them to the pool yet. clorox wipe, then wiped out the clorox residue with a tissue. I'll rinse the goggles before I swim in them, for sure...

A little different approach: After every swim I put a drop of Johnson's Baby Shampoo in each lens (of my Aqua Sphere K180's), wipe it around with my finger tip then rinse them out. Still crystal clear after almost three years - and they never fog up...

what happens with me is that my eyelashes touch the lens sometimes. that smudges the anti-fog.

on bigger goggles I don't have the same issue, but I don't like big goggles.

with the fastskins I have, the strap they come with is slightly too short for my huge cranium. that was pulling the goggles in so tight that my eyelids were almost touching the lens. I swapped out the strap and the googles are much more comfortable now, but I can't see anything.

So far it's not working on my Fastskins. The antifog is made of kryptonite or something. Easily smudgeable kryptonite....
