    Custom masks that fit perfectly

    Beauchat maxlux small has been the best mask I've ever owned. I've been using Anti-Fogging Treatments for New Masks By lowviz, it works great. Read through the whole thing to see how he systematically goes through it, you'll be convinced.

    Oceanus v alkin w31 ???

    On the w31, is it the lack of availability of parts, or someone local to service the compressor that you think is the major factor.

    Ultima Dry Glove System question

    Just leave the gloves and rings inside, it will be fine. You can roll the inside out pretty far almost to the ring. Where are you looking for the leak?
