Corrected entry: Near the end of the movie when Max and the gang are in underworld, the guy with the mask hanging above his head gets knocked into the pig poop, gets completely covered and also loses his mask. Later in the next scene, he is not only cleaner but has his mask back and completely clean with no traces of ever being covered in poop. In the film he should not have had enough time or water to clean up.

Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome (1985)
Corrected entry: The truck they escape on at the end is powered by steam - we can see the funnels and the boiler fire in lots of shots, but nobody during the entire chase feeds the burning boiler with anything to keep the temperature up to boil the water to create the steam.
Correction: If you look closely, the semi itself is an air-started diesel engine vehicle. The steam tubes, boilers, etc., were equipment mounted on the back of the truck.

Correction: Look closely. Even though it looks like he lost the mask, it was mounted on a rod, and the rod strapped or affixed to his clothing. However, it was not tight against his back, and could seen flopping somewhat. So therefore, it was under the surface in the vat of poop, and he had sat up enough to get his head up to breathe, but not enough to see the mask.
