Unlikely: Since the spray would inactivate the virus on contact I would not obsess about any possible rebound exposure.

Very unlikely: Here you are talking about aerosolized corona virus particles infecting you. This can happen if you were in a closed space such as in a room , and workers touched the doors for sure has covid 19 such as being tested positive. In this scenario you may get infected . But you are outside , there is a wind , spray went to your face it is very unlikely.
