GOGGLE FOAM OIL

Keeping the dirt from filtering through the foam vents on goggles has been a major problem in years past. Terrycable has the solution, a special oil that’s dabbed into the foam vents before riding. The oil attracts dust and keeps it from entering the goggles and getting into the rider’s eyes. The oil is safe on your skin and doesn’t harm the plastic goggle frame or the foam filters. The oil and dirt can be easily washed from the foam with mild detergent between rides. A 4-oz. bottle goes for $3.95 from dealers or Terrycable Racing Products, 17336 Eucalyptus, Hesperia, Calif. 92345. Phone (714) 244-9351.
