Quick DIY Tip: Aluminum Paint Shield


Here's a simple way to avoid overspray—especially around roof shingles. Make your own paint shield in minutes.

I used a piece of aluminum flashing, cut it to about 40 x 10 inches, and attached a small wooden handle. That’s it.

This easy tool helps you get clean lines and a more professional finish when using a spray system. It saved me a ton of time while painting my barn, and it’ll work just as well on house projects too.
