This is where I bought mine, exact one.

1. Agreed completely. Forgot to mention that. They mention it on the can and you also have to agree to wear one to even buy it lol.
2. Think this is kind of self explanatory, i'd never paint near my car, and if I did it would get covered.

For #3, tack clothes can be used to get dust off freshly-painted surfaces.

1. You can disagree, but I've had my tails for months painted and they are perfect. I wanted to sand them, but was worried it would take away from the clarity. Wasn't about to experiment on my only set of lights. I did spray a spare light I had, but I can't remember if I sanded or not. If my lights start acting up I will make sure to post it up in here but i'm not worried at all about them.
3. Agreed, I have tack cloths but not everyone has them. Also if the paint dries before you can use them, you will need to lightly sand to get it out.
