Fan Pivot ExitFlex tip and guard for spraying baseboards. #fanpivot #exitflex #cooltools #innovative
What happens here
Before beginning to spray, ensure the surrounding areas are adequately protected. This includes applying masking tape along the top edge of the baseboards to create a clean line and on the floor adjacent to the baseboards. Lay down drop cloths or kraft paper over the entire floor area to catch any overspray. Additionally, wear appropriate personal protective equipment, such as safety glasses, gloves (Maxiflex brand shown), and knee pads (FENTO brand shown), to ensure safety and comfort during the spraying process.
Goal: Protect floors and walls from overspray and ensure personal safety.
