Good Morning!
I've been reading (and reading and reading) and found a few recommendations for the North Safety Silicone Half-Mask (7700) on these boards. I wanted to order one today- have been working with the 6/$3 masks and am trying to improve things so I can breathe for just a little longer
I couldn't find these masks anywhere local, so was going to order online. Did the measurements (chin to bridge of nose and also lips) and I'm borderline M/L. Anyone have any advice? I'm thinking that I should size "down" to M as the silicone has some give and the slightly smaller mask will 1) provide a better seal; and 2) obstruct my vision just an eensy bit less. But having never worked with a big mask and power tools at the same time, I wanted to see if anyone had any words of wisdom. The URL is http://www.discountsafetygear.com/nosihama.html
Thanks!
Janine
