Place it so the long piece goes up one side, over the top, and down the other side. Draw enough to the back to completely cover it. Leave just enough over the front to pull over the pipes, about 1 foot (0.30 m) or so. Use clamps to hold the plastic in place while you're working on it if you have them. Make sure the bottom of the plastic is even with the bottom of your booth, then cut the plastic along the corner pole straight up from the bottom to the corner at the top. Tape the edge of the plastic around the corner pole with duct tape. If you're having trouble with tape sticking properly, place the tape over the plastic and pole. Then, poke a hole through the plastic and tape on the inner side of the pole. Run a zip tie through the hole around the pole, tape, and plastic. Secure the zip tie to help hold the plastic in place. Flatten the piece of plastic on the side and then cut up from the bottom to the corner at the top in a straight line. Tape the edge of the plastic to the pole in back, sealing off the edge by going all along it with tape. Do the same for the other back corner. You should have cut a large square out of the corner of the plastic on each side. Save these for the front. Pull the overhang in front taut, and tape it against itself and onto the poles in front. Hang the pieces of plastic you cut out of the back in front, taping them along the top and on the front corner poles. This should cover the whole front. Seal off the seams completely with tape.  Leave the opening between the 2 sheets in the front, except seal it a little at the top and bottom. When you get in the booth to paint, close this seam tightly with clamps. If the plastic doesn't cover the front, you may need to get another sheet of plastic to cover the front. Position it so that the corners rest on each leg of the paint booth. Make sure it is flat by pushing out any creases or bubbles. Then lift each of the paint booth's legs up one at a time to push the drop cloth edges under each leg. If the cloth doesn't fit right or it doesn't line-up under the paint booth's legs, step back to inspect the legs. Each leg should be near-perpendicular to the ground. Adjust as needed. Tape it to the corners of the booth inside, as well as the drop cloth. Start on one side, attaching the plastic to the drop cloth with the duct tape, using strips to completely seal the seams. This will hold the plastic and drop cloth in place.

Talking with your partner and expressing how you feel is the best way to let your partner know that you are not ready to have sex. A truly caring partner will listen to your concerns and respect your wishes and how you feel. If you are uncomfortable with having sex, the only way your partner is going to know about your discomfort is if you tell your partner that you are not ready or don't want to. If you feel uncomfortable expressing this to your partner, you can seek out counseling from your school counselor. You can also seek advice from your parents.  A good partner will be open to hearing your feelings and thoughts regarding sex. If your partner doesn't want to listen to your stance on sex, you may need to reevaluate your relationship. Your partner may try to convince you that having sex is the best option and it's something you should want.  Avoid giving into anything she might say or do, standing firm in your choice to not have sex. When it comes to having sex, always listen to your own thoughts and feelings first. If you are not comfortable with having sex, then you need to honor your feelings.  Although you may care for your partner's needs, never compromise your own to meet hers. Being pressured into having sex can be a sign that your partner doesn't respect your own needs. You don't need to prove your love to your partner by having sex with her.  In fact, having sex won't likely prove anything at all. Setting clear boundaries with what you are and are not comfortable with can go a long way in avoiding future issues. Talk with your partner and let him know what is acceptable and what isn't.  Making your boundaries clear can help you and your partner feel more comfortable and have a better relationship.  Be aware, too, that it's okay if you're not entirely sure of your boundaries. Just communicate this to your partner and if your partner does something you aren't comfortable with, tell him to stop. Be as clear as possible with your boundaries. Never accept your partner pushing or trying to go beyond your boundaries. It's okay to change your mind. If you are doing something and decide you're not comfortable with it or you don't want to do it anymore, you can tell your partner to stop. It may be the case that your partner isn't listening to you when you say that you aren't ready for sex.  She may try to continue pressuring you into sex or continue bringing it up.  A partner who isn't respecting your needs, feelings, and concerns might not be such a great partner after all.  The relationship might have to end if your partner isn't listening when you say “no” to sex.  Your relationship may be unhealthy if your partner won't respect your decision to not have sex. Your own values and needs are more important than the relationship continuing. You deserve someone who will respect your choice when it comes to not having sex. There are a few common ideas that your partner may use to try and convince you to have sex.  These ideas can range from comparing your relationship to others all the way up to emotional blackmail.  Knowing how to respond to these tactics can help you be prepared and stand strong in your decision to abstain from having sex.  Take a look at the following sample dialogue to learn some of the more common persuasion tactics:  ”If you really loved me, you'd have sex with me.”  This is emotional blackmail and is a serious sign of disrespect from your partner. You might reply by saying “If you really loved me, you'd respect my choice to not have sex.” ”If you don't have sex with me, someone else will.”  A statement like this reveals that your partner cares more about sex than he does for you. You might say “I'm sorry you feel that way.  I hope you find someone else then.” ”Everyone else is having sex.”  Many teens are actually not having sex, choosing to wait until later in life.  You might reply with “Well, our relationship isn't everyone else's. I'm going to do what's right for me.”
