Assembly and method for surface protection

摘要

A method for protecting a surface from radiant heat such as for protecting an outer surface portion of an automobile (40) from heat during radiant heating to cure paint on another newly painted outer surface portion of the automobile (40). Exposed adhesive on tape (22) along one edge of masking material (14;44) comprising a polyester backing layer (16;46) with a reflective aluminum coating (18;48)on one surface is adhered to a surface with the masking material (14;44) extending between the source of radiant heat and the portion of the surface to be protected from the radiant heat.
