My question is, on my mask, the silicone cushion part is attached to clear plastic which clicks into the plastic on the headgear. ( I have this mask http://www.cpap-online.com.au/media/190 ... ht_web.pdf) Can I boil both the rigid plastic and the silicone? Considering it's a pretty pricey mask, I don't want to screw it up.
