What happens here

Before spraying, ensure the room is properly masked. This involves applying 9-inch masking paper along the ceiling line using 1-inch masking tape to create a clean edge. Then, drop 9x400 plastic sheeting down the walls to protect them from any paint fallout or overspray. The presenter suggests a specific order for masking: first put up the plastic sheeting, and then apply the 9-inch paper over it. This method helps prevent dust from the paper falling onto freshly painted walls and causing blemishes.

Goal: Protect walls and surrounding areas from paint overspray

Tools and materials

1-inch Masking Tape — To secure the masking paper and plastic sheeting
9-inch Masking Paper — To protect the top edge of the walls along the ceiling line
9x400 Plastic Sheeting — To cover and protect the entire wall surface from overspray

showing you the ceiling here. We're spraying a ceiling in this bedroom and we've already sprayed the walls and now we've gone around and masked the ceiling line with 9 in paper and 1 in um 1 in tape and then we've just dropped 9x400 plastic down the walls so we don't get any fallout overspray down the walls. And it's pretty fast. Only takes about 10 minutes to do a room this way. And you just run around your plastic up. It's actually a little bit better to put your plastic up first and then put your 9 in paper over that. We actually um on this room, we're in a hurry, put the the paper up first and then the plastic up second. So then we had to run 1 in tape over where our plastic is to keep the the dust from falling down. If you get dust fall down, it'll collect on the walls and discolor your walls. So you definitely want your walls dropped with 9x400 plastic. And then once it's dropped like this, then you can go along and spray it. And as soon as you spray
