Abstract (en)

A newly painted surface is protected by applying over the surface a film (105) of a non-adhesive clinging plastics material. This allows the paint to dry through it and prevents sticking against any contacting surface. The film (105) is subsequently removed. The film is applied using an applicator with a resilient blade (108) at the end of an arm (103). The film (105) is on a roll (104) of strip material which is fed over the blade (108) which is used to urge the film into contact with the surface. The applicator can also be used to apply the film to mask a surface prior to painting. In this respect, the film could also be of an adhesive material.
