Tear gas is a group of irritant agents, usually fine solids, such as CS, CN and CR. Pepper spray, or OC, is made from chili pepper extract in an oil base. They behave differently, so cleanup methods differ.
Do not hose it down or wipe it around. Particles and oil spread when disturbed. A professional crew uses protective gear, lifts residue from the surface and disposes of it as hazardous waste.
Small incidents with little residue may clear with fresh air. For anything larger, it is risky because residue is hard to see and wiping can spread it. A professional crew uses protective gear and checks the result.
It depends on the agent, the room and the surfaces. Some residue fades in a few days, while some types cling to fabrics and carpet much longer. If burning returns when you go back in, the residue is still there.
