3.5 Antifogging performance. Type II glass cleaner shall prevent steam condensation on a glass mirror when tested as follows: Take a glass mirror at least 15.2 cm (6 inches) by 30.5 cm (12 inches) and clean it with cheesecloth in solvent baths in the following order:
a) mineral spirits (naptha)
b) diprpylene glycol monomethyl ether
c) isopropanol and
d) water.
After the water rinse, dry the glass mirror with cheesecloth. To ensure complete cleanliness of the mirror, expose it to live steam. A white highly reflective appearance is taken on by the glass in those areas not thoroughly clean. (If not completely clean, the mirror should be exposed to the entire solvent cleaning procedure again.) Drape one-half of the mirror with a towel and apply the glass cleaner to other half of the mirror. Wipe until the surface is damp and then let dry. Hold mirror 15.2 cm (6 inches) above the steam source and move the mirror back and forth in order to get an even distribution of the steam. The side treated with the glass cleaner shall show no steam condensation when compared to untreated side.
