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!"

Painter need to wear eye protection, yet rarely do.

Painter need to wear eye protection, yet rarely do.  

That's because safety glasses and other gear protect their eyes from overspray, but the paint soon covers the glass and blocks their sight.  Repeatedly cleaning the glasses takes a lot of time and decreases the painters production.  

The spray goggles consist of a sleek plastic frame with an open viewing slit in the center of each lens. By sealing the air space around the eyes, the goggles create a pocket of dead air that acts as a barrier to block paint particles from entering. Paint lands on the rest of the goggles and elsewhere, but doesn’t block the slits, so painters can see even in the midst of overspray.

Where can I purchase the product? At the present time, the product was about to hit shelves in Sherwin-Williams stores around the island or you can also purchase direct at: www.problocker.com  Price is $19.95 for a package of three. 

What are professional painters saying about this product?  Tony Kokata-Tabar a professional with Jade Painting Inc said, “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.”

A Modern Overspray Solution for a Timeless Painters Problem

A Modern Overspray Solution for a Timeless Painters Problem 


The original article was written by Catherine Lee & Hawaii Business released the following article about Problocker’s Slit Eyewear & the Ninja High Performance Spray Goggles. 

What's the problem:


Professional painters & spraymen need to wear eye protection, but rarely do. 

Why? 

That’s because safety glasses and other eywear in the industry protect their eyes from overspray, but the paint soon covers the glass and blocks their sight. Repeatedly cleaning the glasses takes a lot of time and decreases the painters production.

With more than 45 years of experience in the painting industry Kendell Kikuyama says, “Painters cover themselves from head to toe. They wear gloves, long pants, long-sleeve shirts, they wear respirators. But the one place they don’t cover is their eyes.  They’ve tried just about everything on the market and most choose to use nothing at all.

What's the possible solution:

Just over three years ago, Mr. Kikuyama started developing the concept he had been dream about for years. This summer he unveiled the patent-pending ProBlocker Slit Eyewear & the Ninja High Performance Spray Goggles, that guard the eyes while allowing the painter to see through small slits that don’t allow paint inside.

The spray goggles consist of a sleek plastic frame with an open viewing slit in the center of each lens. By sealing the air space around the eyes, the goggles create a pocket of dead air that acts as a barrier to block paint particles from entering. Paint lands on the rest of the goggles and elsewhere, but doesn’t block the slits, so painters can see even in the midst of overspray.

Where can I purchase the product:

At press time, the product was about to hit shelves in Sherwin-Williams stores around the island and online at www.problocker.com

How much does it cost & what do I get:


What are others saying about this innovative product:

Already, a few painting companies have started using them.

Jeremy Duarte, field superintendent with M Shiroma Painting in Kapolei says, "painters hardly ever wear eye protection because there hasn’t been anything on the market that’s efficient and reliable." He picked up 10 pairs for his painters to try.

“These work a lot better than the other stuff out there,” Duarte says. “It’s definitely something we’d buy."

This innovative product that offers a solution to the spraymens frustration.

Spray-Painted Raccoon Eyes - OR - Protective Slitted Eyewear By ProBlocker

Spray-Painted Raccoon Eyes 
- or -
 Protective Slitted Eyewear
ProBlocker, maker of protective slit eyewear, has introduced Ninja goggles to shield painters from overspray.

The patent-pending goggles "use air itself to create a barrier where paint cannot accumulate and that resists paint particles from entering the eyewear," according to the Hawaii-based manufacturer.

Ninja goggles "guard the eyes and allow vision without requiring cleaning or adjustment so that painters can continue working without interruption," ProBlocker says.

The goggles were developed by company president Kendall Kikuyama, who reports more than 45 years of experience in the painting industry. Kikuyama "became concerned about eye health and safety after seeing too many workers with spray-painted 'raccoon' eyes after finishing spray jobs," the company said.

“I constantly see and hear about painters who forgo eyewear when spraying because they find it too inconvenient,” said Kikuyama.

How do the Slitted Ninja goggles work?
The Ninja spray goggles consist of a plastic frame with an open viewing slit in the center of each lens. By sealing the air space around the user’s eyes, the goggles create a pocket of dead air that acts as a barrier to paint particles, allowing painters to see through the slits even if airborne paint mist is deposited on the frame.

*The goggles can be used alone or as an enhancement to safety glasses.
