Glad you're alright. Fortunately, I've not had anything quite as serious as this happen... but I scared the sh&t out of myself once using brake clean. I was using goggles under an e30 (doing driveshaft, CSB, and flex disc) lifted about 3ft with jacks stands on 4 corners.
So I was underneath cleaning all the leaked trans fluid with the brake clean and sprayed a little too close to the back of the trans and the blow back was intense. I was wearing goggles (not full goggles though
) and I took a decent squirt to the eye. You guys know how cold it feels to use the stuff and it burned like a mother!
So I read the MSDS for the product and flushed the hell out of my eyes for like an hour. It freaked me out because for the next 2 or 3 hours one of my yes was fairly blurry. Lesson learned... I always use full coverage goggles now when there is a chance of liquid contamination of some sort reaching the eyes.
Be safe everyone.
