NO RainX. It only works on glass, not Lexan (it pits the plastic).

It works, so no smiley required
The red tube is a little sharp though...
there's an aftermarket tube that's rounded which is not only less painfull, but rather enjoyable.

Your right, I just modified it.
If it's in print it must be true.
Hey Dolf, I did try it & go figure...it works pretty good on my Arai RX7.
And you can't beat the price, I've had a can in the garage for years.
Thanks kingbaby, I'll give it a try.

The RainX will work but I would just buy the antifog lens. My cheapo Scorpion helm (which seems to function great in every aspect but has yet to be crash tested) had an antifog visor on it when I bought it and it has yet to fog up on me even in the mornings with the cool moist air out.
I think the scorpion exo is the best in this regard...its 4 star safety tested via SHARP testing....i recently tested one.... it hurt.

RotfL.
I like Zooke Z-Wax as an antifogging agent. It's often sold at motorcycle shows and such (that's where I got the first batch I tried about 10 years ago), and though it has to be reapplied relatively often, it's the cat's ass for helmet visors. On the outside of the visor it sheds water, on the inside it retards formation of water droplets from your breath.
Z_Wax comes in a very small plastic pot (about the size of the tin used for Burt's Beeswax lip balm if you've seen that in the checkout line at your local bookstore....you do read, don't you?) that can easily be added to your riding kit so that you can reapply it as required. I usually carry an old sock who's mate I've lost and a little spritzer of cleaner in my kit, too.
How can you beat that (without squirting WD-40 up your penis)?

Next thing you know, there will be a warning on WD40 on places it shouldn't go.

Duh, you'll be able to see better which will improve the aim.

This should either get back on topic or be moved.
It's your (collective) choice.

Pin, Z-wax, toothpaste, shampoo, WD, CatCrap, Don't breathe (not recommending, but pretty sure it would work) ...
Maybe we've just worn it out Nate.
Sorry.
It did have a good run, & no one wanted to beat the crap out of someone else on this thread.
