A method of use protects a door hinge from splattered paint while allowing movement of the door, because the barrel portion is covered by the non-adhesive central portion of a masking tape. Use of a specialized roll of painter's masking tape includes the steps of having a longitudinal narrow region in the center without adhesive, in between two outer left and right regions which include adhesive. This non-adhesive center region is sized to match the circumference of the pin barrel exposed on the front of the hinge when opened flat. The tape is cut at predetermined lengths to form disposable masks for masking door hinges. The same tape is used for masking at least a portion of both the front butt plates as well as all of the back pin barrel side of the hinge. The front mask does not impede movement of the attached door, which can be pivotably opened to 180 degrees.

A masking member used to coat a pipe inner circumferential surface of a vent stringer, wherein the masking member comprises: a sponge for blocking a pipe internal space of the vent stringer, the sponge having an outer circumferential surface capable of contacting the pipe inner circumferential surface; and a support member for supporting the sponge.

A mask assembly includes a frame including first to fourth lateral parts connected to define a frame opening, an open sheet including a body part in which sheet openings arranged in a first direction and a second direction are defined to overlap the frame opening and a connecting part protruding from the body part and at least partially overlapping the frame, and masks, each including a deposition part having deposition openings defined therein and coupling parts that protrude from the deposition part and that are spaced apart from each other with the deposition part therebetween. The connecting part includes a first connecting part and a second connecting part that overlap the frame and a third connecting part and a fourth connecting part that at least partially overlap the frame.

The electrical cover comprises a friction-held electrical cover for a recessed light fixture. Embodiments of the electrical cover described herein provide flexible finish material covers that guard recessed can light fixtures from paint, spackling, and other foreign materials. The frictionally-held finish material covers utilize specifically shaped features on the surfaces, such as negative draft, that contact the electrical components to increase the hold on the electrical device. Some of the shaped features of the frictionally-held covers also help minimize stress in the cover. Features are also molded into the parts to assist and strengthen the cover once installed, and thus protect against the intrusion of finish material behind the cover.

Applicators for applying a masking material to a target surface, the applicators include a body, an applicator system attached to the body and configured to apply the masking material to the target surface with a substantially straight edge as the body is translated in an application direction, a dispenser system attached to the body, the dispenser system being configured to support a supply of the masking material and to dispense the masking material to the applicator system, and a guide member attached to the body proximate the applicator system in a trailing position and configured to press the masking material to the target surface after the applicator system applies the masking material to the target surface.
