To prevent or fix snorkel mask fogging, use non-whitening toothpaste to clean the inside of the lenses and lubricate the interior glass with natural baby shampoo before each snorkel dive. This method is especially effective for brand-new masks, as the residual coating may have worn off during the manufacturing process. To remove the fog, squeeze toothpaste onto the lenses, rub it all over the inside and outside of the lenses, and leave it overnight.
To remove the safety coating on a new mask, use a soft-bristled toothbrush or your finger. Rub saliva on the inside lens and rinse thoroughly. Use gentle soap and water to clean the mask, then apply a defog (soap again, toothpaste detergents, professional defog). If the mask needs a good disinfecting, leave it in a 1% bleach solution for a couple of minutes or simply wash it with soap.
If the mask fogs up while out snorkeling, tread water, spit in it a couple times, rub it around, give it a quick rinse, and put your hands on it. This will help prevent fogging and ensure a smooth and comfortable snorkeling experience.
In summary, using non-whitening toothpaste and lubricating the interior glass with natural baby shampoo can help prevent or fix snorkel mask fogging. Additionally, using a mild soap and water solution, a defog, or a combination of these methods can help maintain a clear and comfortable snorkeling experience.
