Actually, when I'm in the pool I have swim trunks a polo shirt and some goggles. If I get any kind of splash back I just dip in the pool. A giant chlorinated bath if you will.
As for the left over, I mixed in a little more water and etched some grease spots on my driveway like it says on the bottle and then rinsed after.

Update,
I got the radiator back in two weeks ago and on the first drive initially saw some change but during the drive temps rose well above the second white line. Upon inspection at the house the second electric cooling fan was not working - fan controller failure.
I got that resolved and after the test drive had coolant pooling under the car and source was a split in the line running from the reservoir to the water bridge right at the clamp. I will be ordering that hose as well as both main radiator hoses.
Will evaluate radiator temps once all the other issues are resolved.
