It is always important to inspect your goggles before each day of play to make sure all panels are clipped together properly and the lense shows no signs of stress or cracking. This is what keeps you alive and seeing so it is imperative that you keep your goggles in a good state of repair.
You should also replace your lenses at regular intervals and also replace them if and when you take a few shots directly to the lenses.
You need to wipe your lenses down at the end of each day as dried paint can cause stains that will mar your vision.
You are best making the initial investment when you first start playing to buy a quality mask with thermal lenses standard, but if you do not have thermals then look at the below guide on how to create a homemade anti fog solution.
How to make Anti Fog Goggle Cleaner
Materials: Spray Bottle
Baby Shampoo (tear free stuff like Johnsons)
or shaving Gel and avoid strong detergents
because it weakens lenses.
Water
Instructions: Mix a solution of water and shampoo. I recommend anywhere from 5:1 to 10:1 (water : shampoo) in the spray bottle. You can experimentwith different strenghts of the solution for best results.
Use:Spray the solution on you goggles or eyeglasses and wipe off any excess. (MAKE SURE not to use this on the inside of thermals as it will ruin the lense.)
