Tips & Warnings
Fasten your eye protection tightly so it cannot be blown off.
Make sure your face protection allows air to pass through so it won't fog.
Tinted eye protection should not be worn at night.
Eyeglasses and sunglasses are not made to protect riders, and they can blow off when your head is turned. If you wear glasses, also use a face shield.

Use jeweler's rouge lightly over scratched plastic lenses and they will take the scratches off. Also, car polish (NOT car wax) will also help.
