Respro / Foggy mask jobbies.......what\'s the story? Having broken the visor mechanism on my Arai, I used the Suomy lid for the race - which isn't as well ventilated as the Aria. So in the heat of battle and being such a sweaty b'stard means that I steam the visor up on the Suomy all too easily... so what's the resolution? I do have one of those Respro mask things but struggle to get this to sit correctly - so what do you others use - if at all? Are you using masks that are designed specifically for the lids that you are using - or are you using standard items and I'm just weird? The Respro mask does have tabs that should be tucked in somewhere, but the Suomy has no space for these? I remember in the old paintball days using washingup liquid on the inside of the googles to prevent steaming up, but this doesn't seem to work either. I had to have the visor partially open for most of the race yesterday, so c'mon, tell me what's going on with this mask milarkey? Tim |
You could try some BOB HEATH visor anti fog spray! It's all I have ever used.:cool: |
i use a foggy mask in my shoei and its great. fits well and does exactly what it says on the packet. never needed one on my arai but i prefer the shoei paints scheme, its fits really well and is as good if not better in protection according to recent tests. |
I have duct tape put over my nose just under my eyes and to the front of the helmet - No steaming up whatsoever :) Even have to do it with a mask in place too. |
I had fogging issues before I got my respro mask and now I don't have any problems at all. I think that it's not fitted it correctly? |
You're not trying hard enough :P I use a fog shield, but it still gets steamed up when I breathe heavily. I've used masks, and tape, but the perspiration from your face will still fog the visor up. Best to use a fog shield and maybe a mask to deflect your breath too? |
I drilled my visor. But it doesn't work. So now even my visor looks ridiculous. And I still can't see the track properly. I may try Lin's tip, it stays in my budget :D |
You just have to make sure you stick it to your skin under your eyes then it don't steam up. I never had a prob on the Arai but I do with the Shoei and I can't quite get the mask to fit right which is why it probably doesn't do the job. The only thing I found was it were a tad painful pulling it off after the 30 min race :o |
Put a couple of spounges in your lid to soak up the sweat:P |
Rattler, one of these will help train you to breathe through your nose rather than your mouth thus reducing the risk of fogging ...... ![]() |
