Abstract

A device for intercepting droplets produced by ceiling-engaging sponges, rollers and the like is described. This portable drop cloth has a light weight framework which supports either a flat plastic sheet or a plastic bag, whichever is preferred for specific applications. The framework is attached to a collar-like member so that the unit may be positioned at a desired location along a handle of the ceiling-engaging element. In some embodiments the size of the frame, and its angular position with respect to the handle to which it is attached, may be adjusted.
