[CL9] Windows fogging up outside

[3RotaRX]

Hi ozhonda members

After driving home yesterday in rainy wet weather, my windshield would fog up from the outside and inside the cabin the windows seem to be clear. I know this because when im using my wipers and the fog goes away and comes back again in a few seconds. I tried all the buttons like having the A/C on but still cant clear the fog from the outside.
Help please

Hav u try putting heater on & blow the windscreen to warm your window up? It could be just cold & wet outside & water condense

Did you try front/rear demister? not sure in cl9, but its in cu2

yep, i've tried putting on heater and its still happening

I have tried the front demister and it only clears inside part of the glass and not the outside.. The rears dont really get fogged up so i never tried.

Its becoming dangerous to drive as i cant really see when im driving in the rain, i'll probably have it get checked out by honda or something if i cant think of anything else to do.

it's fogging up because the windscreen is too cold.

the cold windscreen is condensing the water vapour on the outside.

turn off your A/C

Try and give the windscreen glass a proper hand wash [not just using wipers] as it may be road grime thats contributing and making it worse

Ok, ill give it a try tmr, thanks.

People with similar problems said that the culprit might be rain-x, some also suggested to use Halfords Intensive Glass Cutter along with a microfibre towel to give it a through clean.

Hi All,

Not sure if this is related but I am having issues with trying to get rid of an imprint of a decal on the windscreen. Everytime the front windscreen fogs up, I can see where the decal was and what it said. Is there anything I can use to remove this as this is extremely annoying!

Thanks

You'll need to use a clay bar or the product mentioned above to get all contaminants off the window, then go over it again with hand wash - should clear it up for you...

Gonna have to agree with bludger. I also have a feeling youre not putting the heater on long enough to actually make it work.

Heater or aircon won't do shit for the outside.
