Padacheek Nose Pad Results

Post by TXKajun » Tue Nov 13, 2007 8:10 am

I received the new nose type padacheek about 6 days ago (2nd one....first one was off-center and leaked badly into my eyes). I put it on my UMFF and tried sleeping with it several nights. I tweaked, adjusted, trimmed and basically did everything I could think of to get it to work, but alas, it leaked around the top of the nose pad into my eyes.

On the good side, though, the forehead pad works like a charm. No more pressure (or little red marks) on the forehead! WOOHOO!!

I'm back to the Mack's silicone ear plug material and getting a great seal all around my mask at much less tension on the straps. Soooo, all in all, things are going well.
