Vape on car windows?

[Skullsdust]

Just wondering if anyone else out there gets a film on their windows from their vape just like cigarette? Does it happen to me only because its winter and its just like condensation? Or is the vape just sticking to the old cigarette smoke I haven't really washed off properly. I do vape with my windows closed in the morning if its really cold out. Windows open a small crack but not like I was having a cigarette or anything . So the big question is. Does vape stick to glass like analog cigs do? Anyone else experience this where its a warmer climate? Does anyone experience this at all?

It most assuredly will create a film on the windows, especially in the winter.

It's terrible. Far worse than cigarette smoke haze...

Yes it does. The best thing I have found to cut through it is the eyeglasses cleaner they sell at Walmart. You buy one bottle and get free refills forever! It works great for that greasy film.

This is my biggest pain about vaping. I chain in my vehicle, and within 2 days there is a considerable film on all my windows.

So now my already annoying and miserable morning routine now includes grabbing the windex/paper towels and giving my windows a wipe before I head out.

It doesnt happen in the summer though, and we are almost there so thats good.

I never noticed it, but at the same time I clean the inside of my car every 3 days. It's the one thing I like to keep clean all the time

I feel like we are in the exact same boat. Glad to know I'm not alone.

worse than cigarette smoke, but cleans up easier
I keep a pack of windex wipes and a microfiber cloth in the glovebox and usually clean it off every other month

Yeah, the colder it gets, the worse the film is, and VG creates more film than PG

 

[stevegmu]

When it is cold out I have to clean it on a daily basis, as when it gets dark the glare becomes terrible.
All of my e-juice is 50% or greater PG...

It's an issue down here in FL too even though it's warmer. But, I use a dripper in the car and get a lot of my satisfaction from clouds and lung hits. I blow the vapor away from my line of sight but the wind shield still seems the most affected even though I blow it down or to the side. I also keep my windows up, but I only take 2 or 3 hits every now and then.

Edit: I vape max VG juice.

I hadn't noticed it until the other morning when the sun was coming up and hitting me right in the eyes! It was 28 and cold and I turned on my defroster only to realize it was a heavy haze from my vaping! It made it impossible to see so I pulled over and cleaned the window! I thought it was just me!!!!!

 

[HauntedMyst]

If its really bad, use a Magic Eraser to scrub through it. Then use the paper towels to finish the job.

I keep hearing about this problem, but have never noticed. Then again, my eyesight isn't that great!

But on a serious note: Never use windex on the inside of your windshield as it makes it fog over easier/quicker in cold weather. Pick up some anti-fogging window cleaner and give that a try. That's what I always use and have never noticed vape buildup. I hope one of you will try that and report if you have the same experience. If so, another vaping problem solved!

I use Armorall glass wipes. Just keep a container of them in the car. I almost always vape with the window down enough to make a significant difference but my wife hotboxes her car. That's where I keep the wipes.

I noticed it freezing to my windshield it was pretty annoying. I just blow it out the sunroof or side window

 

[SissySpike]

I leave it there then If I run out of juice or batteries I can lick the windows.

You know buzz, I was pretty sure you were a window licker.

Thanks for the confirmation.
