    Default Tip about the foggy mirror!

    Personally i like to shower and shave right after, always found it very annoying that the mirror is always foggy even with the fan running, i even consider getting a more powerful
    fan, i read somewhere to clean the mirror with shaving cream, i just happen to have in my travel bag a little sample can of Gillette foam. I put some in my hand rub it all over the mirror, wipe it all down with a cloth. After a nice hot shower Bingo clean mirror! 5 days later still clear!

    give it a week and you will have to reapply, but it does work for a little while. Just dont take a hone rag and wipe the mirror. Leaves nice little scratches everywhere. I know better, but the hone was a nani 12k and it was white and I couldnt tell. My SWMBO put back in the cabinet and SCRATCH happens-

    I recently stayed with a hotel that had a heated mirror in the bath room. It turned on when the mirror light switch was on. This is a feature that I will be adding to my home when I do get around to remodeling the bathroom. I could have the hotel bath room completely steamed up but the mirror was perfectly clear. I could have shaved in it while the wife was in the shower.

    I will try the shaving cream trick and see how it goes.

    There's no way I'm leaving the door open until it gets a little hotter here; however, I'm going to find use of my remaining canned shaving cream. Thanks for the tip!

    How nice.
    And if You paint a smiley using the cream instead, You will receive a smile every morning as soon as You leave the shower.
