Question

vehicle protective equipment
vehicle protective equipment is designed to protect the exterior and interior of a vehicle from damage (scratches, dents and tears from tools, and contamination from dirt, oil, grease, mud etc.) during vehicle service procedures.
vehicle protective equipment includes:

• fender covers
• seat covers
• steering wheel covers
• floor mats

fender covers usually have soft material on the inside and easy - cleaning material on the outside. some fender covers have magnets on the inside corners to help keep them in place. seat covers, steering wheel covers and floor mats protect the vehicle interior. these protective items are usually made from either disposable plastic or paper.
note: although seat and steering wheel covers provide good protection against dirt and oil, they offer little protection against sharp objects. therefore, never place tools with sharp edges in your pants pockets; the sharp edges can easily puncture or tear seat materials.
