Today was the first time I used the Speed Master tire brushes. I used them with Megs wheel brightener. The results were fantastic but I also made a mess of myself while doing it. I had rubber gloves on which I typically do when cleaning wheels but I was getting splattered every time I pulled the brushes out from between the spokes. I was concerned that I would get splatter in my eyes.

My question is what protective gear do you use when using these brushes with an acid wheel cleaner? Was I doing something wrong which made these messier than they typically are?

1) respirator?
2) eye protection?
3) gloves?
4) long sleeve shirt or sweatshirt?

This is by no means a complaint about the brushes. I loved how well they worked getting deep in the wheel where I could never get clean without removing the wheels.
