What Kind of Mask Defogger Do You Use??

What kind of mask defogger do you use??

I started off using a typical defogger bought at the local dive store for $8 to $10...then....on a visit to St. Thomas, the dive boat had a squeeze bottle hanging on the back of the boat filled with a mixture of fresh water and baby no-tears shampoo.

It was so much easier to use. Just squirt some in...swish it around and you are done. You dont even have to get it all out since it wont bug your eyes and therefore you can kind of "extend" its use. A minor plus....it smells so good>

So...WHAT'S IN YOUR MASK??? (a take off of Whats in your wallet for the regular tv watchers....of course if you have been diving long...there aint too much in your wallet!!!)

Whatever I can borrow/find/steal on the boat and if all else fails then spit.

...is 1) Aquaseal Sea Gold (or whatever it is...little bottle) 2) 500 Psi (not as good as the former and leaves nasty white residue if you don't get it all off) and 3) spit.

I don't buy the stuff, but have had it given to me by a number of people so now I have a few bottles of each. I have never had a problem using spit, so when people stop giving me defog I will go back to spit.

Best thing I have used is the diluted baby shampoo in a spray bottle. It always works perfectly.

Sea Drops....They came with my mask. When that runs out, I might just spend another $1.95 on the stuff.
