Spray shields and sealing railings

Hey guys & gals,

I was wondering what brilliant ideas other contractors have devised when it comes to "tarping off" or protecting areas from overspray or excess sealer. To date the best method we have found is to use 4' X 8' sheets of luan (very thin plywood) and back it up to the railings with spring clamps. Then we just slide them down as we seal. Please don't tell me your using the "Deckhand" or such and you have no overspray... it just doesn't happen... if the sealer isn't exactly where you want it it's overspray. Thanks and Happy Easter.

Right now I use Olympic Natural Look,I do the inside railing with a stain pad and with the outside railing I just spray in with no tarp at all when I do the decking the sealer just blends right in,no drips or lap marks. When I use Wolman I use a 4X10 dropcloth and use spring clamps to hold it.Doesnt the luan get saturated with sealer and cause a lot of runoff?
