Overspray

Windy day today and mist overspray was flying pretty far.  Got me to thinking.....Have you guys every used anything to block your overspray?  Like a piece of cardboard or a chunk of aluminum, etc. ?  We use cardboard when we stain decks to do railings and lay against the house to ovoid overspray and it works great.  Now I know the love will probably eat the cardboard pretty quick but it still might work.  I was also thinking of a piece of aluminum about three feet tall with a 2''   90 degree bend to rest on the gutter fasteners.  Any thoughts?

Solo as in working alone?  If that is the case then the solution is simple:  hire a helper.  I don't think you should ever attempt to do any roof cleaning alone.  The ground tech has a very important role in the entire process:  safety, rinsing the surrounding area, etc.

Don't use aluminum.  Sodium Hypochlorite and aluminum do not play well together.

If you are worried about over spray you could use a yard sign. Most of us just don't work alone and over spray shouldn't be a problem.
