Best cloth for getting rid of condensation in car?

Yolina

For window cleaning inside and out (so would be good for a quick clear of condensation on the inside of the windscreen) I can thoroughly recommend something like this http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/WINDSHIELD-WONDER-CAR-GLASS-DEMISTER-CLEANER-WIPER-WITH-SPRAY-/270975214056 They can be found in PoundStretcher for £2.99 I need to get another one to use in the house too, works really well.

The OP has a Mk2 TT which I would assume has climate control. All that needs to be done is leave the system on Auto which will then ensure that the evaporator is active and dry the air out. The heating is applied afterwards so the result is dry warm air in the car. The outside airtemp does need to be above 3-5°c for this to work though.

Thanks - I've stuck it on auto which seems to be doing a good job, unfortunately as I said earlier, there is a problem with the Mk2 TT (or a lot of Audis apparently) with wind noise through one window at high speed which I get slightly - I imagine that's contributing to the water coming in so I need to get that looked at. I think in part it's down to the stupid design where the window automatically goes up/down a slight bit when you open/close the door.

And if your doing THAT short a journey, you should consider walking. Your doing untold damage to the parts of the car you cannot see.

Indeed. The problem is, it's around an hour round trip if I walk, which isn't very appealing in this weather unfortunately. I take it on a longer journey maybe once a week though, and always drive pretty smooth/steady as possible - any tips for not damaging the car?

Absolutely no condenstation today or yesterday btw! Probably the temperature increase as some of you guys have said though. Going to try the gel and the A/C on full and see how I get on, if I still get condensation I'm taking it to the garage and getting that Windshield Wonder car demister

Thanks again all!

All my cars are old Land Rovers, so it's usually wetter inside the car than outside...

The best thing I've found for wiping the windows is a microfibre household cloth from the 'cleaning stuff' aisle in the supermarket. I've never taken any note of the brand but I think it's 3M or Scotchbrite? The one that always feels a bit 'tacky' anyway.

You won't always remember to take it out of the car, but if there's one bit of the dashboard that gets warm, from the heater, or above the radio or something, that's where you store the cloth
