When there is a leak and it sprays onto your components, do they fry instantly? Do they fry only if certain things are hit (mosfets, power, connections, cpu socket, etc.)? If so, then what?

Anyone who has fried components please share your experience with me. What happened? Was it instant? How bad was the leak and what caused it?

I am thinking of making plexi shrouds to direct leaks to safe places as well as covering vital components so that even if there is some spash then the critical components (if there are special fry triggers) will still be safe.
