Portuguese term or phrase: blindar nos momentos de festas
Hi everyone,

I am hoping for a little help with a few terms I am struggling with. I have posted them in separate questions.

I am translating the verbatims from a market research survey regarding an advert for a beer brand. The translation is from Brazilian Portuguese into UK English.

The question asked was “Other than trying to get you to buy the product, what was the one main idea of the beer ad you have just seen?”

The response is “para blindar nos momentos de festas”. I am struggling to work out what is meant by “blindar” in this context.

I would greatly appreciate any help anyone can provide.

Many thanks!
