Does anybody use Bugz Mesh Goggles [or any other form of mesh products] and if you do, do they keep out the majority of debris from your eyes? I sweat like a goat when cutting and am constantly having to stop and wipe out sweat from my safety glasses. Never found a good anti-fog solution for them either so any suggestions welcome.
Maybe a bandana? Carrying a weed eater in the summer sun i found myself wiping my face and eyes a ton! A bandana helped me.
I have about 20 of these...when one gets soaked thru, either wring it out or replace with a fresh one. Wife keeps them washed and I am good to go.
Head sweat is a thing for me. My solution is not practical, but works for me. I bought a couple bundles of the cheap wash cloths from walmart for sweat rags. Feel like a southerner in a 60s movie when I pull it from my pocket to wipe my brow sometimes. Other part of the 'solution' is multiple ball caps. On a hot day I'll have to rotate between three of them. They'll only soak up so much before you gotta lay em in the sun to dry back out. Usually only need two. By the time the 'fresh' one gets soaked, the other is usually pretty dry again.
Have you tried a full face shield? I use them when cutting with death wheels and they aren't that bad as far as comfort goes.
The dust doesn't bother me so I don't really notice. I'm more concerned about hot/sharp stuff hitting me in the face.
My forestry helmet has a terry cloth sweat band snapped over the helmet liner similar to pictured. Should work for a sheild also. Waaaaay better than bare plastic for comfort and sweat mitigation.
I have tried the mesh type googles for the same reason but with my dull chains the dust bothered my eyes more. In all seriousness, they do work good in any type of weather, no fogged up lens but still provide good eye protection.
I carry both in my chainsaw case. Mesh and regular, though I don't have to break out the Bugz often they are very good.
They work good. The foam gets weird after a couple months of full time use. I have several pairs scattered around in rotation. Owl
I have bugeyez goggles, I like em but want to try a different mesh size not sure if I'll like larger or not. For anti fog coating I use cat crap, yup, just smear it right on and you'll be able to see chit! Cat crap is an actual product, comes in a paste and a spray, seems to cut down on fog a bit but it's not perfect. And then for the really hot days I've made a few cut offs (homemade cut offs are the only way to go for some reason) and then I'll take the sleeves and use them as headbands, they work great!
