Brands of Masks

You mentioned bacteria being transfered to the eyes.. Bacteria from? Your spit, you meant?

yes...

oh yes, pls do use own spit.. i went for one trip, n this gal forgot to apply n we never bring the gel type of antifog which she is used to.. we ask her to spit and it works the same, she was like .. "its so gross, i cant use my own spit.. it is so unladylike... can some of u donate on my mask"

When i heard that, i nearly did a backroll on the deck i wonder which is more gross, use spit or her asking for ppl to donate spit... yucks

also, no durians before dive.. when u burp underwater.. it is terrible... worst if u vomit thru ur regs... especially if it is ur own... the smell stays..

I think asking ppl to donate spit is gross. Wearing a mask with SOMEONE ELSE'S SPIT is MORE gross!

Eeewww.. I wonder how you know abt the durian smell staying in your regs.

[kelstorm]

when i did my advanced, i had durian on the boat and the rest, .........

[cityofangels]

Omigod! Vomit durian through regs.. *horrible thought*

I've vomitted under water before but never through regs.

[kelstorm]

[cityofangels]

kelstorm: EEEwwwwww............ There are just SOME things that are meant to be personal!

hammerhd: What is it in the Baby Shampoo that acts as an anti-fogging agent? Can use Baby Body Wash instead?

COA

Dun know but it works

For me before i keep my mask for storage i will wipe a layer of shampoo on it(and mind you juz a thin coat) and let it dry it will tahan for at least 3 dives if u dont wipe it off.

Body wash dun knw leh nv try b4

[kelstorm]

Guess we need a volunteer for that experiment.. how abt doing us the honour, cityofangels?? kekeke

[cityofangels]

hammerhd: Let the thin coat of shampoo dry on the lenses? Oh ok, didn't know it was done that way. I thought to use the baby shampoo on the lense & wash it off. In that case, I guess must use those translucent colour shampoo. Cannot use white coloured shampoo.

kelstorm: Alamak! Me become scrape-goat ah?? But the lenses on the Tusa Hyperdry supposedly has anti-fog capabilities. Don't know how true it is. Maybe when the anti-fog stops working already then I'll try one of the methods mentioned here!

i ever use those shokobutsu shower gel as anti fog.. works well, nice smell.. just make sure u rinse it probably before using.. otherwise, i'm gonna have a good laugh seeing u having foam party in ur mask.. hahaha.

i dun know abt the anti-fog properties in Tusa Hyperdry.. it will wear off eventually.. u should know better wif those antifog goggles...

if u need to apply, apply it when the mask is dry not wet.. otherwise, it is useless.. after applyin, leave it to dry.. before rinsing it off.. n u will be protected from fogging for a while.. hahaha..

[cityofangels]

kelstorm: Yeah, I thought must wash off the shampoo etc. Otherwise, wouldn't it sting your eyes if water happens to seep into your mask? Like what you have mentioned, can have foam party in my mask!

Ok, let me see if I got this right..

1. Apply Shampoo/body wash onto DRY lense

2. Let the liquid dry off

3. Rinse with water
