Each time I spray, I lift the edge of the sheet to catch the overspray. I do use a light application which holds well and clean up is throwing the sheet in the washer. It is so simple and works so well for me.
I was just ready to suggest using a (or two or three) bed sheet(s) to cover everything around the spraying area, and then just washing them after. I stopped using spray basting because I have COPD, but I am going back to it 'cuz it's so much easier. I'm going to hold a wet face cloth over my nose and mouth, (like they tell you to when in a burning building to keep the smoke at bay) and then I'm going to spray away! Hope it works! If smoke can't get through the wet face cloth, I'm hoping the spray glue can't either. Anyone have an opinion?
