What to do if your car rearview mirror fogs up?

The rearview mirror is the "eye" behind the driver and plays an important role in judging the road conditions behind the car. Especially when overtaking and parking, we can quickly judge the position of the car through the rearview mirror and make driving decisions, so there must be no problems with the rearview mirror. However, although the rearview mirror looks bright in most cases, it sometimes becomes blurry when encountering some special weather conditions. What should I do if the rearview mirror is foggy?

There may be many novices who are just starting out on the road who are not very clear about the functions of rearview mirrors. Generally, they just take a look when backing into the garage. Normally, driving is casual, but in reality, it's dangerous. We can easily grasp the road conditions in front of the car with our own eyes, but the road conditions behind the car can only be identified from the rearview mirror. If we do not pay attention to the situation in the rearview mirror and change lanes to overtake at will, it is easy to cause traffic accidents. This is the reason why rear-end collisions occur frequently now, so it is very important to pay attention to the rearview mirror, and more importantly, to maintain the clarity of the rearview mirror.

Rearview mirror fogging is usually caused by condensation of water vapor in the air on the mirror surface. This thin layer of fog will block the rearview mirror. If it is the left rearview mirror, we may be able to barely try to wipe it off when driving, but the right rearview mirror cannot do anything, even when driving on a rainy day. Therefore, before driving, we can rub soft soap on the rearview mirror and window glass according to the actual situation, and then wipe them clean after the soap dries, which can effectively ensure that.

In addition, many people now know about defense spray and rainproof patch, which are two types of rainproof products. Rainproof spray is a reagent sprayed directly on car windows and rearview mirrors. It can mainly block the condensation of water droplets and ensure unobstructed sight. It can be widely used, but the disadvantage is that it has a certain timeliness and cannot maintain the mirror surface for a long time. clean. Relatively speaking, rainproof paste is more durable. The effect of rainproof ointment is generally similar to that of lotus leaves, that is, it does not stick to water and can be used for a long time. It can be attached to the rearview mirror or the car window. The waterproof effect is very good, it is recommended for everyone to use.

Finally, many manufacturers now consider various problems that car owners may encounter when producing cars, and fogging of rearview mirrors is naturally one of them. So there is a rearview mirror that can be electrically heated. By heating the mirror surface, the temperature difference in the contact area can be reduced to achieve a defogging effect. This function is also very practical. If it can be used with rainproof stickers or spray, I believe the effect will be better.
