i just got a smith fuse with the mirror fire lens. i was trying to clean them after skiing today and scratched the lens very easily. the scratch doesn't mess with my vision, but i don't want to mess them up anymore. are mirrored lens more fragile that normal ones? and how could i possibly prevent it? should i just try to never took the lens.

i think most mirror lenses are very sensitive. if you rub em hard enough, you can take the mirroring right off..just try to avoud touching em unless your using a something thats specifically made for goggles or very soft, like a chamis

its cause there treated with a chemical to make them mirrored. just try and get all the snow and such buy shaking them off first, then use eather a smith goggle bag or smith cleaning cloth. those work good and dont scratch. just make sure that you keep them clean and dont get dirt on them.

i was using the tip of my ski to massage my lenses, i guess i do to

i clean mine with spy goggle bag usually

oh yeah, tiPp: when using your goggle bag to clean lenses, flip it inside out, as long as it is the same material on the inside, to expose the side that isn't exposed to the elements (i.e. setting it on a table)
