Could it get around safety goggles as well?

[–] HCSOThrowaway@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Like the kind you wear in a lab?

No, those are purpose-built to keep airborne contaminants out.

Eh, sometimes, a lot of lab goggles are vented and only really designed to block liquid splashes

[–] HCSOThrowaway@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

Yeah, fair enough. I just didn't want to give them an "it depends" answer.
