After buying the silicone mask, as long as you follow all the instructions to wear and store it correctly, generally, it will not be damaged.
However, if the mask is accidentally damaged, it can still be repaired. How to repair it? Let’s take a look!
If you should find a tear in your mask, it can easily be repaired by using a product called siloxy. First, wash the area well with alcohol to remove any dust or oil. Then, glue the area with your siloxy in a way that can be held in place for at least 15 minutes. The mask can be handled after 30 minutes, but it is best not to be used for an hour.
Alternatively, you can send the mask back to us, and we will do our best to repair it.
