Protection from brush scratches?

[Timbo]

Anyone know of any suggestions or a product to put over the sides of the Expanda to protect it from brush scratches on the narrower tracks? have got a few scratches on my baby where the car passes through ok, but the van is just that bit too wide.

Don't go bush? LOL!
Maybe lots of Polish before hand? not sure if you can get like a clear contact type of material or not but that would be labor intensive. You can get this spray on stuff for cars, but its not pretty. will be interested in any other ideas??

try some of the 3m clear vinyl stuff, might be a bit expensive though but will put a thin layer on the sides so you just rip it off when you finish your trip.

I had this done to one of my previous vehicles, was really good. Peeled it off prior to sale, mark free paint work. Pace.

That 3m stuff looks great very good idea and removable !

Wish I had that applied to the pathfinder before I went to fraser island !

A chainsaw! Make the path wider.

Thanks everyone for the tips. Looks like the clear protective film is the go, although a bit more expensive than I wanted.

There was a sprayon peel off product that was available a few years ago for 4x4s , cannot remember what the product was but if you search some of the 4wd sites you should find it.
