What happens here

To protect handrails from paint overspray, especially when painting adjacent walls, use a hand-masker with paper. Starting from one end, attach the paper along the length of the handrail, allowing it to hang down and cover the entire surface. Secure it at multiple points with tape. This method prevents any overspray or paint drips from contaminating the handrails, ensuring they remain clean and free of paint.

Goal: Protect handrails from paint overspray.

Tools and materials

  • Hand-masker — Dispensing paper and applying tape
  • Painter's Tape FrogTape — Securing the paper to the handrail
  • Paper — Covering the handrails
