Wet mask

[Foxfold]

I recently bought a new mask, and in general I'm pretty pleased with it.

I no longer have the problem of my glasses steaming up and I find it quite comfortable to wear

However,  I find if I wear it for any length of time that it's 'wet' inside, presumable with condensation.

Is this normal or is something going awry. ? This is a picture of it.

I have a similar one and it does get some condensation after prolonged use but I just wipe it out with a paper towel and get back to cutting.

I have one similar too and yes.. it gets condensation inside.. If there is room inside and it doesn't bother you, you can crumble up a tissue and fit it inside and the tissue will absorb some of this.. it helps anyway as I do this in mine.. It seems to do this worst in the colder weather.. as I don't seem to have much of an issue with it during the summer months

You can wipe it out but be careful as a great environment for growing germs and such.

I wipe mine with a baby wipe when I finish for the day. When I remember to use it.

Yeah, I agree.. I should mention that I wash mine regularly as well..

Thank you all. I'll get some Antibacterial wipes for when I've finished using it and I'll also wash it regularly I think.

Are you breathing more through your mouth instead of your nose? Probably just picking up the moisture out of your mouth breathing.

I would use a vacuum cleaner and ear plugs before using something over my head like that. Just my ever so humble opinion.
