What happens here

The presenter actively demonstrates the use of the cardboard shield while spray-applying a dark-colored finish to the top edge of a wooden fence. He holds the shield directly above the fence board, positioning it to block any upward spray. As he moves the spray gun along the fence line, he simultaneously adjusts the shield's position to maintain effective overspray control, preventing the finish from drifting or adhering to unintended surfaces.

Goal: Apply finish to fence tops effectively while preventing overspray.

Tools and materials

  • Cardboard Shield N/A — Blocking overspray during application
  • Spray Gun — Applying the wood finish to the fence
  • Wood Finish — Coloring and protecting the wooden fence

What they say

So I'm going to give you a little tip controlling over spray over the back of a fence. So I just use a cardboard shield when I'm doing the tops. So I'm not going to get over spray shooting up in the air, in the air. It's going to really limit the amount of over spray. So the cardboard shield just hangs right behind, got a self-leveling oil right here, expert saying to see oil. That will actually self-level itself on a vertical surface.
