Ok, I have a problem with my current mask that I use to play with; its a paintball mask and when I breath out of my mouth it fogs up really fast, Does anyone know of a mask that won't fog?

Go to any place that sells rain-x(Auto zone, Murrys, Meijers) RainX makes a thing that you put on your glass/goggles on the inside, and its anti fog, It supposedly works really well! May give that a shot for 5$ or so

Have you used Rain-X? On the label, it warns against using it on plastics and scratch resistant coatings. I'm not saying it won't work, but it's something to look out for. Maybe try it on a worn our lense first?

ive used rainX itself on my car, However i was talking about the defogger, Ive seen products that have been talked about on the boards here that seemed like they were over priced because people used them for airsoft reasons. Im just sayin u could check that out.

According to the manufacturers of some of the specialized paintball anti-fog products, the cheaper stuff is meant for automotive safety glass and may not be chemically safe for paintball/airsoft gear. I can't vouch for the science of their claims.

I just ordered DYE Invision mask. I've never heard anything bad about these beasts and supposedly no fog whatsoever. The paintball guy I talked to said he was plying for four or five hours and they never fogged once But he's a paintball player, so you can't really take what they say seriously.

I played paintball seriously for more than a year and the Dye Invisions are really good. They are very comfortable and have a good field of view and are ventillated really well. I have seen some (very few) fog. Overall though, you made a good choice.

If you believe your eyes are only worth 17 bucks, then go for it. For me, I believe that what you pay is what you get and I would GLADLY pay 100 dollars or more for goggles if they offered the best protection.

this weekend i will be testing out these new goggles that one of my suppliers told me to try out. they are called UVEX STEALTH goggles. they have a product listing on www.uvex.com/products.htmland then from there you can go to contact information to see if anyone near you sells them. these are the goggles that they used in operation desert storm and my guy says that they shouldnt fog at all, he did give me a tip for my other paintball goggles once the coating wears off, take 10 parts water to 1 part "prell shampoo" apply to both sides of lens, rinse and let air dry. ill let you all know how these new goggles work they have a couple other styles on there too.

They're rated. That means they meet one requirement of Airsoft goggles.
The $17 price would leave me to believe they're fairly low-quality...built just well enough to earn the rating, and nothing more.
Like Bobalis said, if your eyes are only worth 17 bucks to you, go for it. I'll stick with my more expensive pair of Bolles, which I am absolutely sure I can trust.
