To protect the material of shoes, use construction tape. It will easily take the necessary shape, outline the border, and the ribbon that extends beyond the framework can be cut with scissors. It is necessary to paste over at the very beginning, before restoration.

You can use a simple tape. But there is a chance that the glue adjacent to the surface will be difficult to remove after painting. In some cases, a stream of air is used, which can “seal” the adhesive on the “skin” of the shoe. Be careful.
