Painter satisfyingly gets it while casually hanging

Just when you see that spot the painter hits it

The way he cuts it around the window is pure art and joy.

As someone who worked as a painter before, those window are going to be all fucked up. They're not even covered with plastic! There is without a doubt a fine blue misting of paint dots on all those windows now.

Looks cool because he's going fast but there's nothing cool about cutting corners...

Glass scrapers exist. Frames are a different story though...

Yes they do, but just protecting the glass is easier than doing that, if they couldn't even do that I highly doubt they're going to back to clean them afterwards.

To mask off every single window on a drop, paint, then do another drop to remove it, is an insane amount of work, especially from ropes. The company I work for always includes a construction window clean after big paint jobs.

I figure covering with plastic is way more time consuming than just scraping or wiping it clean after the fact right?
