A method of protecting a surface or structure 3 comprises providing a cylindrical roll 1 of a plastic film 2 one side of which has an adhesive coating and in which the plastic film is formed with a plurality of spaced transversely extending rows of perforations, applying the adhesive-coated side of the plastic film 2 to the surface or structure 3, unwinding a desired length of the plastic film 2 from the roll 1 and rupturing the plastic film 2 along a row of perforations. A device for carrying out the method is also claimed, the device comprising a dispenser having a core supported between a pair of end caps, a cylindrical roll 1 of plastic film 2 wound onto the core and a resilient roller 5, 5A that extends parallel to the axis of rotation of the core and that enables a user to apply a resilient load to the plastic film as it is applied to the surface 3. Such a surface could include a windshield or windscreen of a vehicle. |
