So the other day when I was swimming, I noticed some black spots on my goggles around the silicone parts (I wear vanquishers). At first I thought that it was just mascara that had rubbed off *waterproof mascara is not really waterproof*. I cleaned them with soap and water, put them in their case in my bag, and went on my way.
Well they are back, and I haven't worn mascara for several days. EWWW!
I soaked them in a solution of bleach and water, used a q-tip to get the nasties out of the silicone (which was a pain in the butt!). I washed them really well after that in soap and water again. I hung them up to dry in my bathroom.
Any tips on how to keep them clean and keep this from happening? I'm sure this was asked before but I couldn't find it. The case I use is mesh and I keep them in my mesh side pocket of my bag.
I've heard from some of the folks I have in the pool that a vigorous rub w/ Johnson's baby shampoo will keep the clarity in your goggles for ... well a long time. I believe this has to do with the cleanliness of the inner surface and the surface tension of the goggle's plastic after using the shampoo.
