Yeah, I’ve been down that road too—thought I was clever with a bag of rice once, but nope. It’s like you patch it up, and a week later the fog’s back, just as stubborn. Have you ever tried those window repair kits they sell at hardware stores? I keep seeing them but can’t tell if they’re any better than the DIY tricks or just another short-term fix.

I’ve actually used one of those kits on a double-pane window last winter. Here’s what I found: the kit was easy enough—basically, you drill a tiny hole, inject the sealant, and slap a little plug on. It cleared up the fog for a while, but after a few months, the moisture crept back in. Honestly, it lasted longer than rice or silica gel, but it’s not a forever fix. If the seal’s shot, nothing short of replacing the glass really solves it. Still, if you’re looking to buy time before a full replacement, it’s worth a shot. Don’t expect miracles, though.
