Why does smoke from a soldering iron ALWAYS go towards your face
- rapjr9 5y agoBecause you are not using a smoke absorber to pull it away. Anyone that does a lot of soldering should have one: https://www.amazon.com/s?k=soldering+smoke&ref=nb_sb_noss_2 https://www.amazon.com/s?k=soldering+smoke&ref=nb_sb_noss_2 I suspect the actual answer to your question is the updraft around your body due to body heat. Bodies have heat plumes, bacterial plumes, CO2 plumes, DNA plumes, virus plumes, and more.
