Mask & goggles for grinding

[JimCt]

Anybody have recommendations for a good mask & goggle combo for grinding?  Goggles I'm using collect dust inside plus fog up so I have to stop every minute or so, take them off and wipe them out.  They are the semi-soft type which contact skin all around to theoretically seal out dust which doesn't work worth a @#$%.  Mask is the disposable paper type.  Tried using Rain-X on the goggles but doesn't help much.

I'm using a 3M respirator with disposable particulate filters... works well.  I have no suggestions on goggles, mine suck too.

My mask is an AOSaftey purchased for $36.00 from Lowes.  It works well and you can change the 2 filters according to the type of materials you are working with.

My goggles are hopeless; they steam up and allow some dust as well.

It's gross but if you spit on the inside lens and rub it around with a tissue till clear they won't fog any more. Works with a dive mask as well.

Have tried spit, Rain-X, detergent, Downy dryer sheets & WD-40 with no luck.

The only help I have found with goggles is a big fan.  The neighbors replaced their central heat & air and I salvaged the big squirrel cage blower from the unit.  I mounted it on a piece of plywood and put a long cord on it.  I try to aim the fan where it's blowing most of the crap away from me.  It does delay having to clean the goggles and helps the fogging also.

Found these on Ebay & bought a pair.



Gov't. issue goggles good for sandstorms so they say.  Look like regular garden-variety ski goggles to me.  Will try a directed fan too & report results.

I used to use the wet wipes, like you get at a restaurant with wings or crab legs, to wipe the inside/outside of my ice hockey mask. If you clean the goggles, and then wipe the lens with the wet nap, let it kinda haze over, then lightly buff off the hazing with a tissue, it should keep the fogging down.

I actually bought some stuff in a bottle from a dive shop several years ago that was made to prevent fogging on dive goggles.  Worked pretty good.  I would check your local dive shop
