I tried the F1 mask. It’s actually very good. I found that by wearing my glasses a bit further forward so they go on top of the mask, it’s actually decent in terms of not steaming up.
That said I found a better way involving folding over tissue paper and using that to block the top of the mask. That works perfectly for me.
It’s definitely very comfortable. Much more comfortable imo than the ones I’ve used previously. They make some very interesting claims that it stops the proliferation of virus and bacteria in the filter itself. Which means it should protect me too, notwithstanding things like touching my own face etc.
I’m prepared to believe them mostly because I feel like F1 would at least check that out quickly before using them in the paddock. Although other types get seen in the paddock too I know.
Also, I just need that psychological extra barrier to feel comfortable right now.
Expensive, but possibly worth a spin.
On another note. Has anyone gone to a barber yet? I’m struggling with much too long hair. It’s either the barber or give my wife a sharp implement near my head after a long period of time where she couldn’t get away from my annoying mug. 😉
