I tested a single layer of a Bounty paper towel by spritzing it with water in front of my bathroom mirror. I've tried that "experiment" also using a single layer of T-shirt material. The mirror stayed absolutely dry. I purchased cloth masks online and did this same test. No droplets got through the double layer of fabric to the mirror. I feel pretty good that I'm keeping my droplets contained from anyone around me when I'm indoors and social distancing can not be guaranteed.
I don't think these masks protect me much at all but that is not the reason for wearing home made masks.
