Anyone use clear film on scratch prone interior plastic? I'm thinking kick plates, lower door panels, thresholds, pillars (seat belt buckle hits). Thanks.

Anticipating my 16 Oct build date, I'm interested in answers to your question. 👍🏻

I don’t think it will work. I believe that type of material needs to go in a smooth surface. Could be wrong though.

Regular PPF won't work. I tried several times with it and several kinds of vinyl. It will stick but it won't stay due to the textured surface.

Thanks for the replies. Guess I stick with cleaning and 303 protectant.

I bought this mat set.

Mabett Truck Bed Mat Floor Mats and Door Sill Protectors for Ford Maverick Gasoline Accessories 2022 2023(not fit Hybrid), All-Weather TPE Carpets Liner Mat Custom Fit Maverick Gasoline Model https://a.co/d/dQ2uHSW

The included door sill protectors do the job for the painted area. Mats are very nice too.

The funny thing is that the trucks come with protective plastic that covers the door sills and the bottom of the door panels and other interior parts from the factory. The dealership removes the plastic at the time of delivery to inspect the truck. I've seen them in person and the plastic they use is not cheap, could probably last a long time. I would like to find something similar to use on my Maverick. I wish they would have left mine on, lol. These interior panels scratch and scuff too easily.

I recently applied this. It works pretty good and it does not come off so far. I installed in bottom door panels, door sills, and anywhere that will scuff or scratch. If this lasts me a few months, it is totally worth it. You can cut it to fit any interior area of the Maverick.

Glad to see this here! We were talking about solutions for this in this other thread. Do you have any update you care to give on how this has held up? Either here or in the other thread?

It looks the same as the first day I installed them. It is holding up perfectly . No peeling. Looks and protects great.
