Coping with condensation
Condensation inside your car happens when the temperature inside your vehicle is different from the outside. Warm air from inside the car meets the cold windscreen and turns water vapour into actual water. This causes that pesky windscreen fog that impedes your vision. During a journey the driver and any passengers’ breath can cause condensation, but it can also build up overnight. You might even be plagued with condensation after successfully de-icing your car. And when you’re in a hurry in the morning, the mess of dials and switches on your car’s heater only adds to the confusion. Not only is car condensation a pain, but, if it stops you getting a clear view of the road, it’s also illegal. This means you could wind up with a fine and points on your licence. This in turn could hike up your car insurance costs. How can I get rid of condensation quickly? Wash your car to get rid of dirt particles that attract moisture. Get rid of any damp items like coats and towels. Fill a pair of tights with cat litter and leave in your car - a quick and easy car moisture absorber. Air out your car by leaving the windows open for a few hours (when safe to do so). Switch on your blower and A/C, and wipe down your windows.
