Masking to Spray on Stucco? Painting a Commercial Building Solo with an Inner Fed Roller!
What happens here
When masking in windy conditions, it is important to secure the plastic sheeting effectively to prevent it from flapping and potentially exposing surfaces to paint or tearing. After applying the top edge of the masking, pull the plastic down, tacking it tight with tape on the side edges. This temporary tacking helps hold the plastic in place while you continue to secure it. Alternatively, folding and bending the plastic neatly underneath the tape, especially at the bottom of windows and doors, can help prevent it from flapping and keep the work area tidy. The speaker also advises against cutting the plastic and instead tucking it under the tape to prevent it from flying around.
Goal: Prevent plastic sheeting from dislodging or tearing in windy conditions during masking.
