I've used it, and my inclination is that it works very well.  Unfortunately, I have no real good frame of reference for whether it really works well or not.  I coated my goggles before I went off to Operation Restore Order and I had nearly no goggle fogging there.  The temperature and humidity and elevation and a dozen other things are different in Riverside, though, so it could've been the differences in climate rather than the crap that caused no fogging.

Kurn should have more experience with it than I do.

Air goes in & out and blood goes round and round, any variation of this is bad.

Didn't you both have TurboCams?

I've used Cat Crap on my glasses/goggles about half a dozen times now, including OP: RO.  While it does seem to prevent fogging to some small extent, my glasses still fogged up quite a bit.  However, it does make a very good lens cleaner.  No matter how oily and dirty the lenses are, Cat Crap cleans them up very well.  It also seems to help reduce the affects of minor scratches.  Interestingly, it seems to do a much better job of reducing fog caused by moving from a cold to warm location.

I have heard very good things about this stuff

As soon as I get a chance to buy/try some, I'll post about it's effectiveness.

Yeah.  Turbocams are a funny thing.  If they're not properly ventilated (e.g. covered by a hat or helmet) they don't seem to as work well.

I was using my TurboCams, but to keep the fog on my glasses under control when I am really sweating I have to run the fan on high.  I try to avoid when possible since it impairs my hearing, so I tend to only turn the fan on high when the fog starts to affect my vision.  Therefore, the less my glasses fog up to begin with, the less I use the fan, and the happier I am.

Has anyone ever seen this product before?
Can anyone recommend something else- My Wiley-X's fog up way too much.
