How to prevent the mirror from fogging up

Place a small amount of shaving foam on a microfiber cloth and spread a thin layer across the glass, using circular motions.

Then, use another clean, dry cloth to completely remove the excess until the mirror becomes transparent and shiny again.

Application leaves a practically imperceptible film on the surface. This layer can reduce condensation caused by water vapor and, consequently, reduce mirror fogging during the shower.

The effect is not permanent, therefore, the procedure needs to be repeated when the glass returns to accumulating steam normally.

According to the Tom's Guide website, the product can be used to remove certain types of stains from sofas and carpets and to help clean bathtubs, sinks, grout, ovens and mattresses.

Stainless steel surfaces can also receive the foam. After application, it is necessary to completely remove the product with a suitable cloth to avoid residue.

Another known use involves cleaning glass. The foam can help loosen dirt and some marks accumulated on the surface before finishing with a dry cloth.

It is also necessary to check the manufacturer's guidelines for the object or material that will be cleaned, as certain shaving foam formulas may contain fragrances, alcohol or other components capable of causing stains or altering finishes.
