They also sell Pacific Northwest

You also need a spray gun with the glasses.

There is always, always one pair of these in the safety cabinet. Nobody knows how it got there, nobody ever uses them cause you work inside under artificial light and you need real sunglasses out in the yard or welding goggles. They're probably 20 years old sitting in that cabinet.

I'm labeling the next pair I find, "Portable Mexico."

Delivering bad news? Hand them Portable Mexico and a Corona.

Bro they're for finding dye with UV light. Yellow makes florescent dyes much much easier to see/much brighter.

[–] Machinist@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Daaaang! That totally makes sense. It's always quality lab that does UV or small shops outsourcing dye pen and I've never done it.

[–] Madison420@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Yep. Im a mechanic and we use dye on tons of stuff and the purpose of yellow goggles aren't super well known in this industry either in my experience.

What are the red ones for? They make the sky look really cool when it's blue.

The description says "the laser dot" as if there is just one kind. I'm assuming it's a measuring or level kind of laser dot?

[–] Madison420@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Class 3a iirc. Like laser pointers and laser levels. These enhance the color and visibility of them, they aren't to be confused with laser protection, shine a laser in your eye with these on and you will live to regret it but perhaps not live to see it.

Is this Vince Gilligan's fault?

The first time I remember seeing this was in 2000s Traffic.

[–] Noite_Etion@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Maybe, he definitely popularised it.

[–] CidVicious@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 week ago

To be fair to him, he used a lot of color motifs on Breaking Bad.

If they were cheap and not made in China, I would buy these. They look neat.

[–] SharkWeek@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I have a pair for shooting, they were about 6€

[–] GooberEar@lemmy.wtf 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I'm in the USA, so if they were made in China they'd probably cost me $30 USD by now.

[–] SharkWeek@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 week ago

Plus sales tax.

The US is weird ...
