remasking
Concealing once more
Remasking is the act of putting a mask back on, or masking again after having removed or adjusted one.
The term gained currency during the COVID-19 pandemic when public health guidance shifted repeatedly: The new variant has people remasking indoors.
In technical contexts, remasking can refer to reapplying a protective coating or digital mask to data or images.
