Yet to do this bit, but I've done a bit of research.  A friend used clecos
to great effect.  Regarding protection, I have seen that water based white
wood glue (I forget its name) used.  Water it down and paint it on. It will
stop all sorts of nasties from getting to the screen.  In addition, you can
peel it off when finished.

Hope this helps.
