Which floor protection product is right for your project?

TapeManBlue carries floor protection paper, floor protection film, and temporary floor protection fleece. The right one depends on the job and preference, so understanding the benefits of each will help you decide which is best for you. 

Rosin paper has no adhesive backing, is breathable, easy to reposition, and reusable if it comes up in good condition. Because there's no adhesive layer, leaving residue behind is not a worry. The rosin surface protection paper is 69# paper weight, making it durable for reliable protection yet easy to handle, install, and reposition if needed. The rosin contractor paper roll can be either cut or torn to the desired length and be held down using blue painter’s tape. Since it’s paper, it can easily be written on with measurements, notes, or dates. Choose rosin paper for painting, remodeling, moving, high foot traffic, and protecting surfaces during general jobsite work. Rosin paper is not ideal for long-term outdoor exposure, standing water, heavy equipment traffic, or anywhere that needs a fully waterproof barrier. Rosin paper is a temporary, breathable, recyclable surface protector, not a permanent or waterproof floor covering. Its breathable construction makes rosin paper a popular choice for many finished flooring applications where moisture shouldn't be trapped beneath the protective covering for an extended period. 

Floor protection film has an adhesive backing to hold itself in place without taping the seams. That makes it a strong choice for longer projects where you want continuous, sealed coverage and containment of fine debris. Floor protection film is great when you need a low-profile protective layer since the adhesive film conforms closely to the floor. For up to 45 days after application, floor film can be removed cleanly. Choose floor film for hard floors where you want an adhesive-backed layer that stays firmly in place on its own for the length of a longer project.

Floor protection fleece has a tacky backing that creates a non-slip surface, great for heavy foot traffic. Temporary floor protection fleece is ideal for construction, renovation, painting, moving, and jobsite traffic where added cushioning, spill protection, and impact resistance are needed. If the floor protection fleece is still in good condition after the project is completed, it can be rolled up and reused later on. Use this reusable floor protection on hardwood floors, tiles, countertops, stairs, laminate, marble, or as a bathtub protector.

Each TapeManBlue temporary surface protection product is designed for a different type of project and preference, allowing you to choose the level of surface protection, installation method, and durability that best fits your job.

How to install rosin paper

1. Sweep the surface first so debris doesn't get trapped underneath the rosin paper. The surface should be clean and dry before applying.

2. Roll the temporary floor protection paper out flat and cut or tear the desired length.

3. If overlapping the rosin paper, be sure there are a few inches of overlap for reliable protection.

4. Secure the seams and edges of the rosin paper with blue painter's tape. 

5. Replace any section that gets torn or heavily soiled partway through the job.

6. If the rosin paper is lightly used after the job is completed, roll up the floor paper and reuse it for the next project. 

7. If the rosin paper cannot be reused, recycle the paper when finished.
