What happens here

The video shifts to demonstrating the ladder hook accessory, which is a wire device included with the 3M hand masker. Before permanently securing it, the presenter briefly shows how the paper masker can be carried by hooking it onto a back pocket (from 2:25 to 2:34). Then, the instruction focuses on attaching the ladder hook: insert its prongs into the designated slots on the masker's handle. The presenter advises orienting the hook so it points in the same direction as the masker for convenient hanging in a painter's prep pocket or back pocket. Although a rubber band is typically provided to hold it, the presenter shows how to permanently secure the ladder hook by wrapping several layers of 3M 2020 1-inch masking tape tightly around the ladder hook's base where it inserts into the handle. This provides a stable, comfortable, and wrinkle-free grip, preventing the hook from slipping or detaching during use.

Goal: Permanently attach the ladder hook to the hand masker's handle for convenient carrying and access on the job.

What they say

I keep the hand maskers on my back pockets just like that when I'm working so I can access them. Use it. It's good to put they'll work in the front pockets or back pockets. And I take the ladder hooks, put them on, and they come with a like a large size rubber band, but I actually put them on. And then I use just tape and tape them on, and it keeps that ladder hook in place and definitely stays on there. And then I like the the feel of the tape um as a grip. To set up a plastic masker, it's the same thing. I got my 1 in 2020 tape. The tape is going to go on with the adhesive facing downward. So downward. Got my roll of plastic film. The plastic over the top. You don't want it so it falls underneath. You want the plastic so it rolls over the top. Going to press it on. Make sure it's all the way on. Take your tape. Put it underneath this tab and then onto your plastic. And then it has to go underneath that tab. set. It's ready to go. Got my ladder left. Now I can carry two maskers at one time while I'm masking. This is Chriser. How to set up a 3M head masker. In this video, we're going to be showing you how I actually set up a 3M M3000 hand masker to have a ladder hook or to use it to hook onto my backpack's pockets. I like to have these ladder hooks so I can carry around my hand masters on my pockets. And the handmaster actually comes with a wire device that looks like this. And what this device is is actually a ladder hook. And I take my hand masker and it's came out of the package just like this. You're going to take this hook ladder hook and you're going to put it on your hand masker and it fits on the handle inside these rails right here. And I actually like the the ladder hook to actually be pointing in the same direction as the hand masker like this. Either straight or off to the side just like that. And the master will hang in your pocket and straight down just like that. Then I actually take 3M 2020 tape and I'm going to take tape to actually keep this ladder hook on your 3M hand masker permanently. It actually comes with a rubber band, but the rubber band actually slides up and down and the ladder hook will actually come off pretty easy. So, so I'm going to continue taking tape. Now, I like how the actual tape feels on my hand. And the tape actually will last on here for several years. Just keep taking tape, pulling it off. We're going to cover that whole wire that goes down the handle. Continue doing that. If you have inch and a half tape, inch…
