ABSTRACT:
The paint shield comprises a thin rectangular sheet with a longitudinal crease extending in from one end terminating short of the opposite end. A transverse crease is provided which intercepts the longitudinal crease. The arrangement is such that a portion of the shield can be bent about the transverse crease to protect areas intersecting at an angle from paint, such as corner molding and the like. By flexing the shield about its longitudinal crease, the bent portion automatically snaps back into a coplanar relationship with the remaining portion of the sheet so that its maximum longitudinal length is again available for shielding while painting. Notches can be cut out from opposite ends dimensioned to snugly engage 2.times.4 inch rafters or 2.times.6 inch rafters to protect surrounding wall areas when painting the rafters.
