A paint shield is used for masking a tire during painting of the tire rim. T he paint shield includes a plurality of curved or arcuate pieces which have a radially extending inner edge having a radius of curvature selected generally equal to a radius of curvatu re of the rim. The pieces are formed from a semi-rigid material having an adhesive backing and a release sheet which is selectively removable so as to expose only a portion of said adhesi ve backing adjacent the inner edge. In use, the release sheet is removed from each of the curved pieces, and thereafter the curved pieces are adhered to the sidewall of the tire with their inner edge positioned immediately adjacent to said rim.
