When I get out of the shower, and I have fog on my mirror, how can I prevent the mirror not to fog?

Question

Please write at least 3 ideas, and for each pros and cons, thankx

Answer 1

1. Leave window open (pro=easy and cheap, con=cold air comes in, exit shower and freeze)

2. Spray with Windex anti-fogging (pro=easy, con=takes long to work, expensive)

and the best for last...

3. Rub shaving cream all over the mirror and then rub it off completely. This works immediately - very next shower it won't fog (pro=a little more upfront work, con=lasts very long time, cream can be cheap kind)

Answer 2

1) space heater in the room. Pros: keeps the bathroom warm, and with a higher temperature, the air can hold more moisture. Cons: uses power.

2) leave the door open. Pros: cheap! Cons: free peep shows, cold bathroom.

3) there are certain chemicals that will keep the glass from fogging so much. Pros: they often work really well. Cons: you have to reapply them fairly often, lots of work. (Human saliva works to an extent, but it makes for messy and dirty mirrors. Divers use it sometimes on their masks, though.)

Personally, I always use a space heater, and have a small one on the vanity counter, so it is closer to the glass. Turn it towards the glass, and you should never have a fogged mirror.

Answer 3

If you have a ceiling fan use it. If not open a window. If no window leave the bathroom door open. If you can't leave the bathroom door open then get a fan and put it somewhere in the bathroom where it won't get knocked over and use that. You should always have some kind of air flow when taking shower or taking a bath. If you don't, you will develop mold problems which will be harder to deal with than having to wipe the mirror and/or shower door off.

Answer 4

Cheapest way is to put a small blob of dish-washing liquid on the mirror, then use a dry cloth to spread it out all across the mirror in a very thin film. This acts as a temperature buffer between the cold glass and the hot steam, so it no longer condenses.

Answer 5

Hang a towel over the mirror. I also believe there is a spray you can put on the mirror that prevent the mirror from fogging up.

Answer 6

Open a window or install a exhaust fan. My pick would be to install the fan.Even if you fix the mirror from not fogging up who says you're not damaging other stuff in the bathroom?Molding,seals in fixtures,drywall, you never know til it's to late.Be safe not sorry.

Answer 7

if there is a fan in the ceiling turn it on, or bring a stand up fan in the bathroom and point it towards the mirror, or they make an anti fog wipe that you can get for eye glasses, try that.

Answer 8

well, i don't know 3 answers, but one that i do know and i've heard multiple times: you put some shaving cream on the mirror and you wipe it with that and it should not fog anymore, i heard it wears off after a while, but you can always do it again, and well shaving cream doesn't cost too much. :)

Answer 9

1 open a window 2 install a ceiling fan 3 install a exhaust fan
