Hi, this is Dan we are still working on our paint job for expertvillage.com. We are going to talk about moving the drop cloth after we painted over the top of it. This one side potentially has paint on it so we want to make sure this side does not end up on the carpet wherever we move it. In order to do, that I'm just kind of fold it up, fold it in half a couple of time so that the side that potentially has any paint on it is on the inside. So when I go to lay this back down, we have no question about what side could have potentially wet paint on it. Just put it where you want it and then unfold it the same way that you folded it up. If you are working with an area that is smaller, just fold your drop cloth over the top of itself and that would make sure that there is no question on where that excess paint has gone.
