I have an XS Scuba Fusion mask which my son left on our pool deck for a couple of days. Now the mask skirt and strap are gummy(sticky) to the touch. I have tried warm soapy water. Looking for any suggestions on how to fix. Or is it time for a new mask?
 
Get a new skirt for the mask and swap out the old sticky one,
 
You can try silicone spray - food grade - but that's just a last ditch effort. Sounds like the exposure might have mucked it up.

Start shopping for a new one. That is usually a sure sign that it's going to fail soon.
