Frequently Asked Questions

Which size should I buy?

Choose the 2m x 5m for a single room or small touch up, the 2m x 10m for a couple of rooms, and the 2m x 20m for a full house or a larger renovation area. The film is 2 metres wide, so you can lay it flat or tape it up as a drop sheet.

Is 100um strong enough for painting?

Yes. 100um is a standard builders film weight for painting and renovation protection. It resists paint splatter and light foot traffic, and it is still thin enough to fold and store in the handy roll.

Can this film be reused?

It can be folded and reused if it stays clean and undamaged after a job. For painting work most people use it once and dispose of it, since dried paint makes the film stiff and hard to lay flat the second time.

Is the film thick enough for painting?

Yes. The film is 100um, a standard builders film weight that resists paint splatter and light foot traffic. It is still thin enough to fold and store in the handy roll, and it lays flat across floors and furniture.

Can I use this film outdoors?

Yes. The black polythene is weather resistant for the duration of a job, so it works for protecting outdoor surfaces, equipment and materials in light weather. Tape the edges down if the site is exposed to wind.
