What happens here

Dedicate a team member to cover all furniture, countertops, and any other surfaces not being painted with plastic sheeting. Secure the plastic using masking tape to create a complete barrier against paint. The goal is to fully enclose or cover items, preventing any accidental paint splashes or overspray.
