Also ordered their "Chemical
Splash Goggles", a polycarbonate, that are able to go over regular
glasses to use as safety glasses.
They are supposed to be "fog free" and I am hopeful they will work out.

Let me know how that works out. I've tried to get goggles or safety
glasses that work properly with my glasses, and they all fog up or have
some other problem. (One set of OTG safety glasses had terrible
reflections.)


Use a face shield. The only times I've ever had fogging problems with a face shield, I've
been using it outdoors in very cold weather (e.g. while using a chain saw to cut up a fallen
tree in January).

There are multiple reasons for using a face shield instead of goggles, IMHO:
1. more comfortable
2. doesn't fog
3. easier to put on
4. because of 1 thru 3 above, you're more likely to use it
5. much better field of vision
6. there are other things on your face besides your eyes that are worth protecting.
