I sent emails to all the volunteers who agreed to test FogTech anti-fog. I have received back 8 as of today. Thank you for the quick replies.

When I get past 20 responses, I will start posting some results if that is OK.

The text of the questionnaire follows:

General Comments or suggestions:
 
I tested your product, and I have to say I was quite impressed. I can't wait to get my hands on some more. Good luck with your research, I do believe you've found a new market for your product.
 
Having problems getting out and wet but I am hoping to do that in a couple weeks. BTW I will be testing it on a mask that has never seen water or been treated with anything, including toothpaste.
 
I have received the questionaire and I will test the product during a dive trip to Akumal one week from today. I will send you the results shortly after that.

I got back from Cozumel and have forwarded the survey answers back to you! thanks for allowing me to participate. it worked great for me as anti-fog but i did have some smearing... could have been how i applied tho.

How do the results look? I was very happy with my samples and would encourage others to try it.

Well I have only about 16 responses so far, and the overall response has been somewhat positive. I think it is a bit early to for me to judge.

Here is how the 16 responded on the important questions:

9. How long did FogTech® last?

All day or more__4__ 4 hours_4 ___ 1 Hour_5 ___ Did not work for me__2 __

10. Did FogTech® last more than one dive? Yes__7 __ No_2 ___ Did not try__6 ___

14. Think about your dive and other products you have used for fogging. How would you compare your vision with FogTech® as opposed to other products or nothing?

The Best__1 ___ Much Better__2 ___ About the Same__9 __ Worse__2 ___

15. Would you buy FogTech® advanced anti-fog for diving? Yes__9 ___ No__5 ___

When I get more responses, I can come to a solid conclusion.
