A temporary, self-adhesive barrier, typically made of polyethylene, is applied to glazing surfaces. Its distinct coloration facilitates easy identification during installation and removal processes. This material safeguards panes from scratches, paint splatters, mortar, and construction debris.
The application of such barriers offers significant advantages in various settings. It minimizes the risk of surface damage during construction, renovation, or transportation, thereby reducing repair or replacement costs. Its use preserves the aesthetic appeal of the glazing and contributes to project efficiency by streamlining post-construction cleanup. Historically, less sophisticated methods were employed for surface protection, highlighting the improvements in material science and building practices.
