<p>A foam article for use as a masking material when spray painting a vehicle comprises a plurality of foam strips (1a, 1b, 1c) joined together by a common seam (4) along at least one side edge to form a cord (6). The cord (6) can be adapted for masking across gaps of different size in different locations by superimposing the appropriate combination of foam strips (1a, 1b, 1c) to provide the required thickness of cord (6). The cord (6) may be secured by wedging in the gap or by attaching an adhesive stripe (2) on at least one of the foam strips (1a) to a surface on the inside or outside of the gap. The cord (6) may also be re-used by removing any painted foam strips or by re-arranging the foam strips to conceal any painted foam strips.</p> |
