Pre-treat de fogging tinted lense mask ?

[Christina0701]

I recently bought Seadive/Oceanways masks, one for me one for my husband. His are the Eagle eye HD Rayblocker anti fog lenses and mine are the Superview TruColor anti fog blue lenses. My question is, is there a special way we should be pre treating these types of masks? Or is the old toothpaste drill sufficient? I'm scared to ruin the lenses they were pricey. We are going for our refresher course this Wednesday night and I of course didn't think of this until now! Thanks!!

thanks Steve, they said no toothpaste, dish soap only, glad I called them

That makes sense. Every reference I have read / made to the abrasive cleaning of the mask has been in the context of raw glass.

One would hope that such a premium antifog product would arrive ready to use.

I would expect you still need to keep it clean so be careful to avoid make-up, sunblock and salad dressing.

[Amen]

I also have a SeaDive Ray blocker UV HD tinted lens mask I understand baby shampoo but do you have to do it 20/30 times like toothpaste? and are you able to use the defog afterwards before you enter the water? thank you
