Eyewear Solutions For The Painting Contractor & Sprayer

In an industry where 80% of all spray painters use nothing at all to protect their eyes from the chemicals and toxins in paint overspray, ProBlocker.com works to solve the problem without the frustration of stopping to clean, peel, or manipulate the eyewear!  

Problocker’s NINJA™ spray goggles offers a solution for the painting contractor who wants an eyewear that lets his spray painter “spray 60 minutes an hour” without putting his spray-gun down to fiddle with the eyewear, as well as the spray painter who wants an eyewear that he can “just put it on and spray till the job is done.”

What are professional painters saying about the product?

“Before I used the Ninja goggles I thought they would be a nuisance.  After using them twice, I would not spray anything interior or exterior without the Ninja goggles " -Tony Kokata-Tabar (Professional Painter: 15+years)

PAINTING INDUSTRY & PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT FOR THE SPRAY PAINTER. PROBLOCKER, INC

Problocker was established in Hawaii in July 2011 by Kendall Kikuyama.  The purpose of the company is to bring to market a proprietary new approach to overspray eyewear for use by painters, especially spray painters.  Spray painting is a process that produces paint mist from the jet of the spray gun.  Spray painting is universally used in industrial fabrication, such as automotive production; the furniture industry; and in painting ships, aircraft, building structures and machinery.  Spray painting is well used in the residential and commercial construction industry.  However, the drawback to spray painting is the out of control overspray paint mist from the spray gun.

Personal protective equipment should be worn while utilizing spray painting techniques.  The part of the body most frequently ignored or abused are the eyes.  The eyes are a sensitive and important external organ, yet workers daily ignore basic steps to protect themselves.  Personal protective eyewear, such as goggles, face shields, safety glasses, or full-face respirators are recommended when a hazard exists in painting.

However, the reason why spray painters do not use protective eyewear is because they are frustrating and require constant handling to work.  When protective eyewear is used, it's generally quickly covered over with paint overspray that impairs visibility to a point which demands the user's attention.  A search of one blog for painters that discusses these issues reveals comments such as "I don't wear them (safety glasses) when spraying.  They're a waste of time if you ask me and not that practical," or "Back when we did a lot of commercial painting, while we were in the man lifts, we would pop the lenses out of glasses, so that no one could tell from the ground."

Kendall Kikuyama is the President of Aloha Painting Company, Inc., of Honolulu, Hawaii.  Mr Kikuyama stated Aloha Painting in 1976 and is a long-time observer of the problems of providing eye protection while spray painting.  As the owner of a commercial painting company, he is sensitive to the industry issues of health and safety, as well as the concerns of his employees.  Mr. Kikuyama has spent the last several years developing his own proprietary design of overspray eyewear specifically for the professional spray painter.

Ninja High Performance Spray Goggles 

*Promoting "Continuous Clear Vision" without slowing down production.

A Professional Painters Eyewear from Hawa-eye-i

Since we were spraying paint, we thought it was a great time to break out the Ninja Spray Goggles from our Hawaiian friends at Problocker, Inc.  Problocker has been advertising with us (The Paint Dealer) for the last few months, but this was the first opportunity we had to put its goggles to the test.  Designed to keep the overspray from getting into your eyes, you would be hard pressed to find a better product to accomplish these results.

Two of our three painters wore eye glasses while painting.  Since they do a lot of spraying on the job, I asked them what they do about paint that gets on their glasses.  They said they have to replace their glasses three to four times a year because the lenses get so scratched up from trying to clean them frequently.  That is a lot of money they are spending on new glasses, so the Ninja Spray Goggles were of great interest to them!

Rick, who was doing the spraying himself, was the guinea pig, and he was very pleased with the results at the end of his spray days.  A heck of a lot paint made its way onto his lenses, which means a lot less cleaning and scratching - but it also meant he was able to see clearly for a lot longer while painting and he did not have to power down to clear the paint from his eyes or glasses.  Saving time and money is what pro painters are trying to do on the job.

DOES GETTING PAINT IN YOUR EYE FRUSTRATE YOU?

It's an easy yes or no answer!

But if you answered, "no" your not a spray-man or you're a blind spray-man!
I just read a painter's I hate list on paint talk,
"I hate when I get paint in my eye .... ''un paintoro in me ojo''
"I hate when I drop a screw for a plate and I never see it again"
"I hate noticing every other painters mistakes 24 hrs a day 7 days a week" 

It's not a good idea to spray without any eye protection.  You should use eye protection to keep paint out of your eyes.  Any spray-man's eyes will become irritated, started to sting, and became very red if they are unprotected.  Through-out my career I've used safety glasses, however, I would eventually have to stop working and clean off the paint to see what I was doing.

I have never used anything like the Ninja high performance spray goggles before!

I like the lenses because you can spray for hours and still see without having to clean anything until your done.  The Ninja is also so lightweight, it didn't create any uncomfortable pressure - I actually forgot I had them on.

You should use eye protection to keep paint out of your eyes. If you want to keep paint overspray out of your eyes and still be productive, get the Ninja!"
