One more Spray And Rinse question

So I've been playing with Sray and Rinse dilutions and it seems that 5:1 works great for the wheels on my car but my wife's Escape must have carbon for brakes.
Tried the 5:1 and it got maybe 60% of the dust off the rims. Re-shot them with 100% and just then a breeze kicked up and I inhaled some of the mist. Let me tell you it tastes nasty an you know you sucked something nasty in.

So I guess the question is should I get a white mask for using this S&R or just be more careful? Obviously I'm fine (other than getting rid of this nasty sinus/cough thing I've been battling for a couple weeks). But I keep hearing how this is strong stuff and want to make sure I take the proper precautions.

And BTW: The Escape which has not been waxed for about 4 years (other than car wash junk) looks AWESOME with PwS and Natty's Red. Hardest part was figuring when when the wax was hazed (truck is silver).
 
This is a Professional Grade product ... i would recommend using a mask and gloves if you are not use to using this strong of a product ... ;)

Gloves are not a problem; its easy not to touch. It's that pesky wind that got me this time. Guess it's time to look like a surgeon when doing the car! :)

well at least for a few minutes while spraying, especially if it's windy ;)

some people also wear goggles while spraying or rinsing , which is a real good idea :bigups
 
I hold my breath when I go into doing it close my eyes if need be spray away than back away a good 10 feet and than take a breath lol
 
When working on tire/wheels/wheel wells I wear HD gloves. Not only does it keep my hands from looking any more like prunes than they do already, but they save my hands from the stronger wash solutions and save my knuckles/hands from the ineviteable scrapes and scratches you get from sticking your hands where they don't belong. :D
