bc1987 Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 Hi, My zed is parked up for winter and I noticed a lot of condensation on the inside. Would a cover stop this and if so, does anyone have one for sale? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrahameJ Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 I was getting a lot of condensation in mine too, and have cured this with 2 x 1 kg Silica Gel bags off eBay for £11. Overnight I pop one on the dashboard and one on the rear cross member, and all the glass is clear even if it has been pouring down with rain overnight. Prior to that I was busy with micro-cloths wiping down the glass with the air-con on before I could get going. The bags are re-usable, just pop them on a radiator to dry them out. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/New-2-x-1-kg-Silica-Gel-Desiccant-Bag-with-Hot-HIGH-QUALITY-G1T2-/112520137675 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veeg33 Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 IMO, the main issue is old deteriorating rubber seal on our old zeds You can try to recondition them --> https://www.amazon.co.uk/Gummi-Pflege-Rubber-Stick-100ml/dp/B007TNOQDI/ref=pd_lpo_vtph_263_lp_t_2?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=MRA818TY51PE4NAQ0JE2 Mine improves a little bit after using this and I suspect they 14 years old seal has passed it expiry date.
