Neil,

A relatively inexpensive (@10 for $25 bucks) "N-95" rated tie-on mask will 
remove the particulates that are the dangerous components, however, I don't know 
if it will remove the fumes component that may give the bad aftertaste.

The N-95 masks are used at hospitals to protect against air-borne diseases, 
if you know a healthcare worker (I'm one)......BUT, be aware that they are only 
as effective as the quality of the fit on your face.  They don't work if 
there are gaps caused by wrong size, shape of face, facial hair on the edges, etc.

I don't think the typical respirator can remove all of the fumes that cause 
the bad taste, sine the molecules are probably too snall for the masks rating.  
Any mask that good would be almost impossible for your lungs to drag in air 
through.
