    Default Surface Protection

    I bought some of this to protect a customers worktops which cost a small fortune....

    Medium Duty Corrugated Plastic Sheets for Surface Protection - Proplex 2mm - Protec

    This was the 2mm stuff, cut with scissors and gave excellent protection.

    Brilliant stuff especially to protect flooring/carpets on sites as long as it's taped properly.

    The guys on one of the store jobs we do use the 3 and 4mm corex, we're taking 400 m2 up over, at the end of the job, it's skipped, the whole kit caboodle, if only I had the space / need for it myself.

    Good gear, I've seen similar and was told that it comes in different 'strengths' as in the amount of adhesion to different surfaces, and the amount of working life.

    I use my old camping mats, the ones you sleep on. They are about 9-12mm thick and provide excellent "cushioned" protection!
    The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realise it doesn't say anything it's to late to stop reading it!!
