Ultra thin and incredibly light polycarbonate plastic lenses
can dramatically improve your appearance and eye safety. Follow these easy steps to keep them and any type of lens looking like new.

  • Start by flushing your glasses or goggles with hard running tap water. This will remove any dust or dirt particles that can scratch your lenses. Do not rub with your fingers while doing this.

  • Clean your lenses by using eyeglass spray, liquid cleaner, or just warm water and a little dishwashing liquid. Gently cleanse the lens surface and rinse off or wipe off any residue. Never use chemicals not specifically designed for lenses.

 

  • A micro fiber cleaning cloth (available in our store) is the best thing to use as it will not scratch lenses. If you do not have one available, use a soft, clean cloth to wipe the lens surface after rinsing or cleaning. A 100% cotton cloth is best. Never use worn clothing that may have embedded dirt.

  • Never lay your glasses or goggles face down. Keeping the lens surface face up prevents them from coming in contact with things that can scratch the lenses.
  • Store your glasses or goggles in their case when you're not using them. It keeps dust and dirt particles off and prevents scratching.
  • Never use paper towels or tissue, they will scratch the lens. Also, some tissues contain lotion that will cause smearing.
  • Never use Windex. If you have any kind of coating on your lenses (scratch guard, anti-glare, etc.), using Windex is about the worst thing you can do. Windex will quickly eat away the special coatings on the lenses, and leave them pocked and virtually useless.
  • It is always best to keep your glasses on a cord. This will prevent loss or damage if blown off while riding, or removed for short periods. Do not store your glasses on the top of your head as this will stretch and distort the frames.
