    For smaller mirrors that you can hang in the shower, if you run the warm shower water over the back side of them, it clears them right up for a nice visible shave.

    Have fun.

    Good tip

    I usually just go at it with a towel, but my folks have a heated mirror in their bathroom that doesnt steam up no matter what. I gotta get me one of those I think.

    Rain X carries a product called interior glass anti fog.

    thanks for the tip. my solution is to open the door when I'm out of the shower, wipe the mirror with a window wiper (or a kitchen wiper? how do you tell which is which?), strop with the door open, and then close it before I start the actual shave. I'd definitely try using the end of my lather on the mirror next shave...

    Thanks for the tip, Martin! I've been looking for a cure for this without leaving the door wide open. I wonder how someone thought of this?!

    I tried this after reading this thread... went to CVS and got a travel size can of Gillette regular foam (as in not gel) for $1.39 to test this with.

    I made 4 or 5 lines on the mirror.

    Well, let's just say I learned that a little bit goes a LOOONNNNGG way.


    It did work wonders on the mirror, though, not 100% fog free. More like 90% and a quick wipe from fog free.


    Cheers for the tip!

    Thanks for the tip. I've always been using a hairdryer to clear off the foggy mirrors. Maybe I'll give this a shot, if I get around to obtaining the canned stuff.
