When April showers come your way, and instead of bringing flowers, they just fog your windshield, this one easy trick can help you regain visibility.

To make your windshield fog-resistant, all you need to do is:

  1. Get a dry towel
  2. Spray shaving cream on the towel
  3. Wipe the shaving cream over your windshield
  4. Wipe the shaving cream off of your windshield

The treatment leaves behind a transparent film of detergent on the glass. These detergents work to lower the surface tension of water as it condenses, so that it does not form into individual droplets. Instead of forming an opaque fog, the water condenses into a flat, transparent sheet.

Because shaving cream is water-soluble, the treatment may not last very long. A commercial product specifically designed for de-fogging windshields may be more durable -- but the shaving cream is probably cheaper.

So, now that you know how to avoid losing visibility to wet weather, go forth with confidence, and browse for pre-owned cars near St. Louis, MO from AutoCenters St. Charles.
