I’m a mechanic with 55 years experience – here’s my easy tip to defog your car windows

AN expert mechanic has revealed his top tip to easily defog your car windows.

Scotty Kilmer took to TikTok to share the handy hack for dealing with irritating condensation.

In most cases, there is already a feature on your car for doing this, as Scotty explained.

The defrost setting turns your heater and air conditioning on to both warm the cabin and dry out the air, preventing the windscreen from fogging up.

However, Scotty has a tip for what to do if your air-con is broken or your car doesn't have any, which plenty of classics don't.

He revealed that you can use shop-bought rain repellent to deal with the issue.

The spray is usually used on the outside of the windshield to maintain good visibility in wet conditions or on paintwork to prevent it from becoming water damaged.

However, if you put some on a cloth and wipe down the inside of the glass with it, it will stop fogging up in the cold.

Scotty advised: "Get rain repellent, spray it on the windshield and clean it all off.

"The repellent will repel a lot of the fog."

He added: "But if it's really bad keep some nice paper towels so you can wipe it off."

Rain repellent is available online for as little as £5 from Amazon.

commenters were amazed by the useful trick.

One wrote: ";Thanks so much for all this info."

Another added: "I love you and your videos."

It comes after Scotty told his viewers why, in his opinion, you should never buy an EV.

Meanwhile, he also busted an engine myth that sees drivers spend thousands unnecessarily every year.
