Now I'll feel bad if you hate it!

I just used the Mask Leak Sealant from Mike over at Dive Right In Scuba and this stuff is great.
I have an extremely small face and have three different masks that all leak. I am a master at mask clearing.....
Yesterday I tried out this stuff for the first time and did not have a drop of water in my mask through two dives. I even let some water in during the second dive due to a little fogging; swished it around the lenses and cleared and no leakage.
It is sort of waxy, I used a VERY tiny amount around the skirt and did not re-apply for the second dive and it still held. It does leave a bit of residue on your face but not visible and wiped off easily.
I figure the little container I have will last me forever. Or darn near.
This stuff will go with me on all dive trips for sure.

I got the mask leak sealant and tried it out. For me it was better, not perfect but much better. This is the first time in memory I could take my primary regulator out and replace it with my backup without starting a non stop leak.

Now I know it's not scientific, but there is no label saying what is in this stuff so I sniffed it and it smells like silicone grease. Once I did that I decided to sample a bit of it, it tasted like silicone grease as well. As far as I can tell that's got to be what it is.

There are warnings on it to not get it in your eye, but I don't think that's a concern based on how it works. As far as I'm concerned it's not perfect, but it is much better than without it. I'll buy it again.

Well, what da' heck. We'll get some in the shop in case anyone wants some on their next order.

Has anyone used the liquidskin mask that has a wide face? Curious to hear how it seals around moustaches and facial creases also.
