Abstract
Swimming goggles or mask having a soft or flexible water excluding peripheral seal and sealant applied to the seal to further enhance the ability of the seal to prevent leakage of water between the seal and the facial skin of the swimmer. The sealant is applied in a thin coating to the seal just prior to placement of the goggles or mask on the face. The sealant comprises a very viscous silicone with a silica filler that is temperature stable, non-smearing, chemically inert and non-irritating to the skin.
