Mask Brickwork with Paper

What happens here

To protect adjacent brickwork from paint overspray, use masking paper applied with painter's tape. Position the paper to cover the brick area completely, ensuring that any cracks or uneven surfaces in the brick are adequately protected. This is particularly important if the brick is porous or has existing paint that should not be covered. Masking the brick prevents paint from adhering to it, minimizing clean-up and ensuring a neat boundary between painted and unpainted sections. A short piece of paper is often sufficient if the sprayer's pressure and tip are correctly set to minimize overspray.

Goal: Protect brick from overspray and prevent paint contamination on unpainted or differently painted brick areas.
