i tried the fog x and it didnt seem to work that well. when i clean my dash i use armorall and it got a little on the windshield and i think thats whats causing the fog. i tried cleaning it off but nothign takes it off!! when i use the invisable glass to wipe it down, i can still see where the armorall is... any ideas on what i can use to get it off but at the same time saving my dash?

try windex, just be careful not to get it on your tint if you have tinted windows

had the same problem once and it drove me crazy. just clean the inside of your windows really good. you'd be surprised how much filmy build-up you will find. and remember to use "fresh" not "recirc". makes a huge difference, guaranteed. and yeah a/c helps to get the fog off immediatley but you shouldn't have to use it all the time.
