The damage is not the issue, but how should I use the stand to stop this happening again?
I can see you have to be very carefull with acrylic and old thinners rags etc damaging paint work.

Funny answer: Panel stand management is a tough order. Because i have a team of panel stands working under me i found it to difficult to manage them all and have them all performing there job in an orderly fashion. There was one panel stand which always did its job to a T so i made it cheif panel stand, gave it a badge and it manages all the others for me. Much easyer that way.
Logical answer: Wrap masking paper around the foam. Discard after each use.
Cheers.

I think I'll wrap in paper or plastic and renew every time.
Thanks guys.

Paper is better, but plastic will do.
FFS glad wrap will do in a pinch.
Paper lets some of the overspray absorb into it, plastic has a tendency to let it fly off the moment its dry, this isnt overly good if your doing multiple coats over a fair period of time, as the first coats may dry and fly off before your done spraying, but less of an issue with laquer.
Thats something Stan, my chief panel stand taught me.
Cheers.

Just a word of warning DJ.
Don't be complacent with them just because you have appointed Stan as the chief. Every now and then some of them will get out of line and you'll have to remind them of where they stand in the workplace. Another thing I found is sometimes they like to play practical jokes like sticking a leg out and tripping you when you're not looking, but you can't afford to get angry at them as they won't hesitate to go on strike and lay down on the job.

Spare a thought for those of us with severe staff shortages who have to make do with unqualified and often incompetent substitutes, many of whom have trouble standing upright for more than a few minutes.
It's no wonder the world is in such a shambles...

I could probably send Stan to your place for a few weeks to train up your newby stands if you wish? Dont need him currently
I've got a couple of immigrant stands who were useless when they first started but Stan has sorted them right out.

Stan hasn't got a mate called Ollie has he ? Kind of solidly built with short legs...?
Those two have got a bad reputation together I hear.

Just a strip of 50mm tape run across the top seems to work.
