Anyone used VentureShield on things other than paint/bodywork

    The gf has a new company car which doesn't sit well with having 2 dogs to transport around in, as they like to jump up in the back and look out of the window and invariably scratch the hard plastic interiors.

    So I wondered if it was possible to VentureShield the danger areas whilst she has it and then remove the VS when it comes to trading it in? I've only seen mention of using VentureShield on paintwork as it was designed to, but did wonder if it would ruin the plastic if used internally?

    Not tried it on plastics like an interior but I fit it on my fork uppers to avoid stone chips.
    You have to fit it dry there as it doesn't stick properly if you wet it.
    You can only try a bit and see, usually the interior plastics are textured so not sure if it would stick.

    I know you can fit it along top of rear bumper where dogs usually scratch as they jump in and out. Got a new S Max couple years ago and dog in it every day,other than dirt which cleans there's no scratches on interior plastics in boot.
    Am gonna get the Ventureshield for the bumper as he gets older can see him using it as a step.
    Get yourself a full size rubber floor mat for the boot,well worth it if you have dogs.

    Yeah, got the floor of the boot sorted (it's a BMW Tourer) but they tend to put their front paws on the sills of the side windows and the back window. It's scratched already :rolleyes: but it would be good if we can line it somehow to prevent further scratches. Good point about the bumper, will deffo get some for that bit.

    @ian, you're correct in that the interior hard plastic is textured so I'm not sure VS would stay in place. Might get a small piece to try though.

    If you really want to cover it search google for boot liners. If I find the link I'll post it. They're designed for pets,they cover back of seats and sides up to windows,also have flap that goes over bumper.

    Yeah, we've got a covering for the boot floor and seat back but it's more the sills of the side windows and rear window that the liners don't reach to/cover. Don't really want to get a harness to keep them locked in so plastic covering is the next thing to try.
