What happens here

Position the masking film dispenser at the top of a small window frame. Roll out the plastic and tape, aiming for a consistent 1/2 to 1/4 inch overlap onto the window frame. Ensure the tape creates a straight line and adheres well. Then, pull the plastic tight down one vertical side and tack it securely to prevent wind from dislodging it. Next, apply tape from the dispenser along this vertical line.

Goal: Apply masking to the top and first vertical side of a small window frame.

Now I'm gonna take my inch and a half. I'm gonna run it down to where I tacked it to right there. Now go with the wind. I'm gonna tack it down. So now I've pulled it tight. I'm gonna run masking down right to where I tacked it again. I'm gonna press this to make sure it contacts my plastic everywhere. So now I'm gonna take tuck this under.
