    Clear protective sheet - ArmourFend??

    Can anyone tell me what the proper name for the clear stick on sheet used to protect duco etc from stone chips is called? For some reason I have the name ArmourFend in my brain, but that could be complete tosh.

    From where might I get some of this stuff? Is it a specialist crash repair shop item, or your general Repco store thing?

    Thanks
    David

    That's the stuff. I did some Googling but can only find UK suppliers.

    Is there an alternative name here?

    (Can't read spanish)

    3M replied with an Adelaide vendor (Terret Automotive 08-8352-3182 down at Thebarton for anyone in SA).

    They sell it by the metre as follows:
    2" wide - $6.60/m
    4" wide - $8.80/m
    6" wide - $12.00/m
    12" wide - $25.00/m
    Not as expensive as I thought, so am going to get a few lengths. Bloke on the phone said it is proper automotive quality and guaranteed not to yellow.

    HTH anyone looking for this stuff
    David

    BTW - 2" = 2 inches, etc
