Hi I'm Tim Gipson and I'm going to talk to you about safety goggles. Now it is very important
whenever you are doing any kind of woodworking or any kind of working with tools for that
matter or even chemicals you want to make sure that you protect your eyes with a good
set of safety goggles or safety glasses. So I've got a couple here for, this is just a
standard set of safety glasses, something you can pick up at any hardware store or home
improvement center. These have impact resistant lenses. These are something that you want
to use whenever you are drilling or sawing or cutting wood or anything where you have
debris or chips that are flying out. Now the second thing we have is we have goggles and
you can see that these are a little bit different where they actually have the impact shield
but then they also have a wrap around here so it actually protects your eyes so these
are good for if you are doing some cutting some metal or drilling metal where you may
have a high speed bit and a lot of shards of metal that might be flying out, this gives
you a much better protection. Also goggles are essential and you want to choose these
if you are working with chemicals so if you are using any kind of a stripper for stripping
furniture or any harsh chemicals such as muriatic acid for cleaning concrete, you want to make
sure that you are using safety goggles as opposed to safety glasses and that is because
safety goggles will completely make a seal and completely seal out so if you actually
get some splash of the chemicals with the glasses they will actually go over the glasses
and can still get in your eye but with the goggles they won't. So again it is very important
whenever you are working or doing any kind of cutting or drilling or working with any
kind of solvents or chemicals you want to make sure that you choose the appropriate
safety glasses or goggles for whatever application. I'm Tim Gipson and that's some information
about safety goggles.
