What a random video to stumble across. I swear those pingi bags are amazing. I've got a 07 non-ac Clio banger sleeping outside, barely doing any mileage. And moist, steamed windows and even mould under the rear seats have been away since I've thrown 2 bags in it. Just must remind myself to microwave them every now and then.

Yeah man, that's the thing, especially if it's sat around, just got to keep on top of the bags! 😉 There must have been trapped moisture inside my car somewhere, as after the first 4 days, I microwaved it, and I've only microwaved it once again since, about a month later! 😎👌

I used to have a similar problem. Another very effective solution is if you can, on a nice sunny day, leave the car with all the windows down. This helps to dry it out and the moisture leaves the vehicle. Its a similar principle to the product but on a grander scale.
