I had bought the new Demon mask in Blue and Silver just before leaving on a dive trip to Florida in June. Just after a few dives the Silver was starting to rub off just taking it in and out of the case. The silver paint scratches so easily that it makes the mask look like Ive had it for years after just a few dives. While on the boat divers were very happy to see one, since it had just made the début and I was more than happy to share my experience with them. I had to say though that I didnt like the way the paint has came off of it, since it makes it look like it has aged over the 7 dives it really has.
Is this an issue that Mares has been made aware of yet? If not it is something that you should start looking into or you could have some unhappy customers on your hand. The fit of the mask is great and so is field of vision but something has to be done about the silver coming off. Ive not been diving with it since, but this weekend Im pulling it back out of my bag to finish my Rescue Diver class.
I know that I should have written about this issue some time ago, but I wasnt sure if it needed to be done. However, after some time to think about and realizing that we have a Mares forum on SB, I thought that I would address my concern about a great product.
