Thermal lense, or get a new mask with one. Dye Invision.
Also try Anti- Fog sprays, not the best though. |

Someone told me that you could take a raw potato, cut it in half, and rub it on the inside of your lense. let it dry and then buff the potato film off the lense, and it wouldnt fog up. I of course never tried that.
I bought a mask with anti fog lense. All joking aside, thay say if you place the mask a little differently on your face, with the goggles not so close up under your eyes (just slightly lower), it wont fog as bad. Suppose to allow a little more air flow into the goggle area. {The potato thing is suppose to work thou} |

that potato thing sounds like somthing a kid would say to someone he had a grudge on so that he would screw up his lenses and have to buy new ones

If you are playing in the wrong weather most thermal lenses willl still fog. Try breathing out your nose not your mouth.

More or less, but my Profiler fogged when my hood was up around the mask. When I dropped the hood, however, I didn't have a problem again. |

anywhere near the lens, it work really well. i have a regular scott and
it outlasted my dads v-force...in really bad
weather...raining..actually it was sleet.
here is what i did:   its hard to see so heres an illistration ( they're links)  yeah i know i know ghetto. but it really worked for me.... see how it directs the air down past your chin? |

1. Don't breathe funny. Mosts masks I have used are vented so that fogging doesn't happen. Maybe try something different. |

I have a Scott mask, Jedd. Sounds neat. Are you sure the wearer won't suffocate, though?

Get a mask that has a Thermal Lens or an anti-fog spray and if you dont have either one....jus spit into the lens and wipe it (sounds nasty but, it works) and if you dont think so....ask anyone who goes scuba diving.

Fogging occurs when the lens is two different temperatures. Anti-fog films/ sprays try to make sure water vapor doesn't form on the mask from condensation. These don't work too well, especially in the cold. Thermal lenses use two lens with an air space between to buffer the temperature difference. As long as there's no moisture that seeped between the two lenses, it won't fog. Mask fans can also help, but in the cold having freezing air enter your goggles where your eyes are isn't exactly comfortable. Potato grease sounds like it would work. It would make the mask surface greasy, and it won't allow water vapor to condense since oil and water don't mix. |

Alright I know how you feel. I almost quited paintball because of the mask problem, but then I got the V-force shield. It has never fogged. NEVER. You can but your mouth against the inside lenses and they will not fog no matter how hard you try. They run about 40-45 bucks. And they are worth every single penny.

I agree with getting a V-force. I have a Morph and it NEVER fogs. The mask itself is a little bulky so I'm either gonna get a profiler or try the JT Pro-Flex. But V-Force masks never fog.

Ace: Check if the mask is just anti-fog b/c anti-fog lense dont do a good jod of keeping to fog away. If your lense is really thermal, you should have no problem with fog.
