Can I use paper tape to protect fiberglass parts?

Yes, paper tape is ideal for protecting fiberglass surfaces during painting. However, be sure to use high-quality tape that does not leave glue residue when you remove it. Prefer tapes specifically designed for bodywork or marine applications, which offer greater resistance to solvents.

What is the difference between the various types of tarpaulins?

Tarpaulins differ mainly in their weight, i.e. the weight of the material per square meter. Lighter tarpaulins are suitable for protecting against splashes and dust, while heavier ones offer greater resistance to tearing and abrasion. For demanding jobs, choose reinforced polyethylene tarpaulins.

What type of protective mask should I use when painting with antifouling?

When painting with antifouling, it is essential to use a protective mask with a filter for dust and organic vapors. This will protect your respiratory system from the toxic substances contained in the paint. Make sure the mask has an exhalation valve for added comfort.

How do I choose the most suitable protective suit?

The choice of protective suit depends on the type of work you need to do. For simple painting, a polypropylene suit is sufficient. For more demanding jobs, such as resin work or the application of antifouling, a Tyvek suit or similar material is recommended, which offers greater resistance to solvents and chemicals.

Which masking tape is best suited for high temperatures?

For jobs that require resistance to high temperatures, such as spray painting with oven drying, it is necessary to use a masking tape specifically designed for high temperatures. These tapes are made with a heat-resistant adhesive and do not leave glue residue even after exposure to high temperatures.
