I used to work at a plant that made Limeaway, it was a acid based cleaner for removing rust and lime.

I don't think I would spread lime and then crawl around in it. It will irritate eyes, nose, lungs. I roll out felt paper.

Id roll out more than Felt paper. Come to think of it, I wouldn't even touch it. I'd make an employee do it. how much are you charging for this type of work givin the circumstances? I'd like to know.
