Full Version: Cover My Lid


General Sun Shield
Just thought I'd share how I cover the trunk lid while shrinking bg.
I use drawer Liner (soft foam , wont slip off) and place it over the trunk lid.
So no worry about leaning over the trunk and scratching it with a blue jean button or whatever.
Cheap enough.Lowes has 5' rolls for $3.99 dunno.gif
Just thought Id share.







running free

I want to give thet a try and use it on the roof as well evilgrin.gif

I believe this one was covered a long time ago dunno.gif

If I'm wrong , then good tip ..I've been using a cheap blanket for years ..just pin it on each side of the trunk, then close it so it doesn't slide off onto the shop floor..+ you can lay tools on the blanket without worry of paint. I have 2 ..one for the trunk , one for the feet for inside new vehicles when loading in the bg thumb.gif

Pre Taped plastic drop cloth about 12" wide,along the bottom of the glass,
Comes in rolls of 75'.

Then if the deck is larger I use some liner material or a cloth drop cloth that I cut down.
