How to maintain and clean ski goggles
As a challenging sport, skiing absolutely cannot be without suitable sports protective gear. As protective gear for eyewear, ski goggles bear a great responsibility. Therefore, we should also maintain ski goggles well on a daily basis to extend their service life.
After wearing ski goggles for a long time, the lenses of the glasses will be covered with dust and grease, and these dust will accumulate in every corner of the glasses, including the groove between the frame and the lens, the pad area around the nose and the folding part of the frame. So we need to clean the ski goggles after use.
First, let me introduce three ways to clean ski goggles.
1 Rinse
Rinse with clean water (do not use hot water). Clean water can wash away general dust.
The ski goggles are printed with fingerprints or accidentally stained with food oil. For the oil and fingerprint stains attached to the surface of the coating layer, we need to use glasses cleaning agent. Never use detergent. Detergent is for washing non-delicate items such as tableware. Some chemical components contained in it have a strong corrosive effect on the coating layer. After a long time, it will penetrate into the internal reflective film, which will cause the coating layer to fall off; using some shampoo and shower gel to clean will leave a layer of grease, which cannot be washed clean. So it is better to clean the lenses with clean water or special glasses cleaning liquid.
2. Scrub
After the lens is cleaned, rinse it with a calm stream of water. What, there are still water droplets? Hold the lens vertically (stand it up), let the water flow evenly from both sides of the lens, move the lens slowly, and "scan" the lens so that the lens is almost parallel to the water column. Using this method, there are generally no water droplets or any fingerprints left on the lens, so the lens will not be contaminated again when it is wiped dry. Just wipe the remaining water droplets near the frame after cleaning. The whole process takes about 20-30 seconds.
3. Professional paper towel wiping
If it is inconvenient to go out, a disposable paper specially used for wiping lenses is recommended. Single-piece packaging is easy to carry, does not wear the lens, and can also be used for camera lenses.
Second, I will explain to you the maintenance knowledge of ski goggles.
1. Be careful when collecting glasses. You should also develop a fixed habit of placing glasses. First wrap the lens with flannel, then fold the left frame, and then fold the right frame. To prevent the glasses from being under heavy pressure, you can place the glasses in a hard glasses collection box.
2. Ski goggles are delicate equipment. If you want to use them for a few more years, you must use and maintain them well. Try not to touch the mirror surface with your hands, and be careful not to let sharp objects scratch the mirror surface (be careful not to put it together with mobile phones, keys, etc. to avoid scratching the mirror surface). Always keep the mirror surface clean and free of stains.
