To minimize mold and algae build-up, rinse your mask with fresh water after each dive and allow it to dry completely before storing. Store your mask in a hard case to protect it from dirt and abrasives and also to protect it while traveling. Avoid leaving your mask in the sun or resting on your head prior to a dive – the heat will cause a spike in the mask’s temperature which contributes to fogging.
