One of my tasks as a self-defense trainer is to train rookie policemen in the use of protective tools such as batons, stun guns and also pepper spray. I specialize in training non-lethal submission tactics utilizing these tools.
Initially, we utilized a standard form of pepper spray which was in liquid form. We observed that some of the excess spray could be wiped away to dampen the effect. To improve effectiveness, we started making use of Mace pepper gel in training.
Pepper spray is a non-lethal self-defense tool made to incapacitate an opponent. It does this by causing a painful burning sensation in the eyes as well as on the skin of anyone that it hits.
The effects of a defense spray are momentary and last only up to 45 minutes. They don't cause any long term harm to an attacker although the effects should be powerful enough to give you enough time to escape an attacker and ask for help.
The gel pepper spray which I utilize is unique in that the pepper spray is suspended in gel. This gives it a few noteworthy advantages. First, the pepper spray is stronger as it is concentrated into a gel form.
Next, since it is a gel, the stream doesn't disperse, giving it a better range. The gel also sticks just like glue to a target, which makes it hard to wipe off. Furthermore, there isn't any danger of it flying back into your face due to winds.
I specifically make use of one that contains 45 grams of spray. These are more than enough for 7 one-second-long bursts that can hit a target around 18 feet away. Furthermore, it came with a special flip-top cap which was made to prevent accidental discharge.
All of my students have noted that they are pleased with the Mace pepper gel which I showed them and we learned with. In fact, it has proven to be just as effective in the field as its regular, liquid-based version.
