Challenges of Managing Dust<\/h2>\n

Countertop and backsplash projects often involve cutting and sanding materials that produce a lot of dust. This dust can spread throughout your home, affecting air quality and making cleanup a headache. <\/p>\n

    Dust Containment Best Practices for Countertops & Backsplashes <\/h2>\n

    Create a Dust Barrier System <\/h3>\n

    Before starting your project, it’s crucial to prepare the area by setting up a dust barrier to isolate the work zone. We recommend sealing the area using plastic sheeting to cover doorways and openings. Trimaco has a range of dust containment poles<\/a>, magnetic zippers<\/a>, and door kits<\/a> to help create dust containment barrier systems quickly. <\/p>\n

    Protect Your Surfaces <\/h3>\n

    After creating a dust containment system, protect surfaces that will not be worked on. Install a light but durable floor protector such as X-Board\u00ae<\/a> to protect against foot traffic, spills, and dust. Mask off cabinetry with a pre-taped masking film, and line your sink with a padded, repositionable surface protector such as Trimaco\u2019s Stay Put<\/a>. <\/p>\n

    Cover Your Vents <\/h3>\n

    Lastly, cover vents and openings to prevent dust from spreading through your HVAC system and lower the risk of inhaling dust particles in the air. We recommend using duct cover protective films<\/a>. <\/p>\n
