Anti fog spray

[Pixie69]

Just bought a new lid (Shark) and the visor keeps on misting up. Didn't have that problem with my old Shoei. I tried an antimist spray but that did nothing. Any suggestions, ideas please?
Thank you

If the visor can have one fitted try a Pinlock insert.

+1 for pinlock, until I read the above comment I had forgotten that helmets without one still exist.

Helmets without a pinlock are a nightmare. Alternative is an anti-foggy mask that sits on the inside of the helmet and around your nose directing downwards under the helmet although depends on chin curtain design as to effectiveness. Pinlock > anti-foggy mask.

There's no %100 solution since even pinlocks can mist up at slow speed riding and when the visor has been closed for a while, but pinlocks sure as hell don't mist up as much as a visor without one. Riding with all vents open all the time is what I do combined with a pinlock, just one of those combinations that enables you to focus on your riding more and makes trips in anything but fine weather more relaxing.

I use Bob Heath visor spray and it's worked fine for me. Use it as per instructions and it's OK.

Don't bother wasting your money on sprays even if you find one that works you will have to keep buying it.

If the helmet isn't pinlock ready just cruise with the visor open very slightly.

Fairy liquid.

A dab'll do ya on the inside of the visor, then polish it in.

(other brands are available)

Cheers very much for the tips. I'll check if the helmet can take a pinlock. If not will try the anti fog mask. Sprays didn't work

I used muc-off anti fog on an arai visor that was not pinlocked. It worked really well and lasted a couple of weeks at a time. Application was a visor off, muc-off cleaner, then fresh application of anti fog, carefully following the instructions and allowing to dry.

Other than that, pinlock, although I've seen some people suggest breath mask type things that channel your steamy exhalation away. Never tried them myself. EDIT: As per NJD above.

Pinlock > Foggy mask > Fairy liquid polished on the inside of the visor regularly > Open visor

I tried a few of the above suggestions with less than ideal results.

Eventually, I went down the Pinlock route and have never looked back.

I use one of these https://www.midwestmarketingltd.co.uk/product/invision-hypershield-visor-insert/

It just sticks inside your visor and works a treat.

Just looked into pinlocks, £23 buys one. Will try that, sprays didn't work & mask is too hot.
Thanks Guys

Respro foggy mask if you're a heavy breather and the pinlock gets overwhelmed in winter, or if you wear glasses.

Pinlock all the way,

had 1 helmet (my first that didn't have it) was an absolute nightmare, all lids since have had pinlock inserts, they do the job very well, never have any fogging at all now (currently a shark lid)
