I also wear gauntlets when doing any step that involves raw grain. I was surprised to notice just how much dust collected on my arms, glasses and head as a result of milling and mashing in - even with being careful. So now once I'm mashed in the gloves come off and the hat gets changed.
No intended disrespect, but this sounds like overkill to me. I don't think outfit changes or gauntlets are standard procedure for homebrewers or professional brewers. To each their own, I suppose.
