Quattro FX question
For all you Quattro FX users, I have a Quattro FX FFM that I am looking to switch back to. I had nose bridge itching issues with this face mask. Has anyone else using a Quattro FX experienced the same thing? If so did it resolve itself?

Re: Quattro FX question
I can't tolerate any of the masks touching any part of my skin so I'm always finding ways to work around that problem. Since I started using the FX I've been using a two facial tissues folded in to in to a fourth of the size and then I line one on the top around the nose bridge and the other along the bottom for overlapping in the middle. I use a new ones every night. I have a few more leaks but not many if I get everything lined up correctly. I break out in a rash if I don't do something like along those lines regardless of the mask I use. You might give that a try since you only have a problem with the nose portion it should be even easier for you.

I rarely use my Quattro but a piece of cotton (those small, flat round or square cosmetic types) work well.
Re: Quattro FX question
PS, change the cotton nightly to keep a clean surface against your skin and mask. And, the flat cotton is essential as a cotton ball can lift the mask too high off the face and create a leak.
