Hmmm, the data sheet is abiguous to say the least:
http://www.jewelultra.com/fabricprotector.htm
"Inhalation: Nausea and stomach pain may occur. There may be vomiting. Drowsiness or mental confusion may occur. There may be loss of consciousness.
Wear suitable protective clothing and gloves
[snip]
Harmful: may cause lung damage if swallowed."
Nothing about wearing a mask when using the product.

David,
Not the best-written sheet - "Harmful: may cause lung damage if swallowed." - Surely swallowing is the path to the stomach, not the lungs
