What happens here

To address overspray, a simple cardboard shield is utilized. This shield is typically a flat piece of cardboard, often repurposed, that is held strategically to block unwanted spray. The presenter demonstrates how this shield, held by a handle (possibly homemade or an attachment), can be positioned just above the fence line to protect the areas behind or above where the sprayer is directed. This minimizes paint drifting into the air or onto neighboring property.

So the cardboard shield just hangs right behind, got a self-leveling oil right here,
