Top Quality Drop Sheets

All professional painters use canvas drop sheets to protect surfaces from spillage and unnecessary wear. Choose a drop cloth made of heavy duty cotton canvas to absorb paint drops and stop it getting into carpets, wood floors, glass or any other surface that is hard to clean after contact with paint. Cotton sheets are washable and will last you a very long time. We only stock the best quality that has been tested in use by professional painters in Sydney and elsewhere in Australia. Reusable canvas drop sheets do not contribute to landfill because you keep them for years - they are strong and durable. 

 

Plastic sheets are perfect for dust and paint protection. If you have equipment that cannot be moved while you paint, use plastic sheets to provide a barrier for any liquid or solid particle. We have 2 kinds: regular clear light-weight sheets and heavy duty blue sheets. Heavy duty plastic sheets can withstand a bit more wear than regular ones  and can be used over swimming pools, broken windows or car seat covers.

Why do I need drop cloths?

Drop cloths protect your belongings against paint spillages while your painting. The main types of drop cloths are canvas, plastic, and paper. Each type of drop cloth has specific benefits for each type of job. They also differ in cost, absorbancy, and durability.



Types of drop cloths 

Canvas 


Canvas drop cloths are the choice of professionals because they are durable and thick enough to absorb paint drips. Some canvas drop cloths come with a rubberized butyl backing, which grips the floor and keeps paint spills from soaking through the cloth. They are virtually indestructible; buy them once, and they’ll last for many years.


Good thing, because they’re the most expensive drop cloth available. Canvas drop cloths come in different weights--the heavier, the better. Prices for a 9-by-12-foot cloth range from $15 for a 6-ounce canvas to about $30 for a 12-ounce canvas.


If you’re a messy painter, the heavier canvas will offer extra absorbency. It’s also woven more tightly so it’s more resistant to tearing. On the other hand, it’s heavier and bulkier to store and tote around.




Plastic 


Plastic painter drop cloths are available in a wide range of thicknesses, from .4 mill to 4 mill. Most jobs require a .6- to 1-mill plastic drop cloth ($1 for 9x12-feet): It’s about the thickness of a trash bag. 


Paint-proof and economical, lightweight plastic drop cloths are good furniture and cabinet covers. Heavy-duty plastic is resistant to rips and can be reused. 

  

Since plastic painters’ drop cloths are not absorbent, paint spills can run. And if you step in any spilled paint, it’s going with you.  



Paper 


Paper drop cloths ($3 to $5) are an inexpensive way to cover furniture or windows for small, indoor jobs, such as touching up window trim. They’re absorbent and textured to hold paint. When you’re finished, you can just fold them up and throw them away.  


Paper painters’ drop cloths, however, are not the best option for floors because they rip easily.
