Why You Use Pre-Masked Film Tape (Masking Film)
Pre-masked film tape is perfect for:
- Kitchen units
- Wardrobes
- Tall cupboards
- Window frames and doors
You simply run the tape along the top edge, then pull the film down so it drapes over the units. It creates a quick, clean barrier for painting and sanding above cabinets and worktops without leaving residue.
Why You Also Use Dust Sheets / Drop Sheets
Some surfaces shouldn't have adhesive film applied - such as:
- Sofas
- Armchairs
- Bedding
- Wood floors (unless using correct low-tack film)
- Highly textured or delicate surfaces
For those, using dust sheets or drop sheets is safer and more flexible. They protect furniture without sticking and they cover large, awkward shapes more easily.
Why It's Good to Use Carpet Protection
Capet protection film is ideal because it:
Prevents dirt, paint, dust and spill damage to carpets during decorating, renovations or moving work.
Stays in place - it sticks to the carpet so it doesn't move or bunch up like dust sheets.
Speed up jobs - workers can walk on it confidently, move equipment, and clean up faster.
Keeps client's homes clean and professional - which builds trust and reduces complaints or damage costs.
