Mask, meaning in this context?





.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ margin-bottom:0;
}

I'm trying to find a synonym for the term "mask" used in this context: Two men are trying to make a place safe for a blind person, and they spot a potential danger, so they say:




  • Let's cover this up there.

  • With a mask.

  • I'll get some adhesive tape down there...


I think in this case the mask should be some kind of protective covering, but since I have to translate it to my language preferably with a single word I'd like to know what could be a synonym for this one.



Thanks in advance.

  • @Cascabel: The real problem is that there's not much context about this, this is being said on a scene switch and really that's not that linked to what previously happened.

  • Perhaps "guard" or simply "cover" (both nouns). Or maybe the noun "shield".
