    i always find it better taking my tusa mask apart to get rid of t he gunk that grows in the crevices?

    does your mask come apart!

    bit of detergent and a toothbrush normaly does the trick

    Dishwasher sounds favourite... or soak in a mild milton solution then get the toothbrush on it

    Hot water, washing up liquid and elbow grease. Does the trick perfectly, even on clear silicone

    milton sterilising solution; or the dettol surface cleaner that is used to clean ccr counterlungs. a toothbrush around the edge should work.

    that's the sound of my jaw hitting the floor.

    You must be, without doubt, the hardest bastard on the face of the planet. Been doing that for long? How are the lungs (ie the ones inside your chest) taking to it?
