Has anyone used any of the anti scratch films on their forestry doors? I just bought a new skid steer for mulching and want to protect the door as much as possible. I know it won’t prevent all scratches but would it help? Would it do any harm? Thanks in advance
I started replacing broken glass doors on Deere skids a few years ago because they were constantly breaking the glass. Deere offered a Lexan replacement door with all the hardware, so I started using those. They are a lot more durable, and I never had to replace one after the switch. I do remember the Lexan door being more than double the price of the standard glass door.
Vetech63, Thanks for the reply. I should have mentioned that it has the Lexan door. I just want to do whatever I can to keep it as nice as possible for as long as possible
They use a vinyl wrap or clear bra on cars. It can be removed down the road with no paint damage on cars. You could ask about applying on lexan. It is basically a thick clear window tint. I have it on the front of my Ferrari. It is tough!
They make slip sheets that just rip off when scratched. Whether you can find a size that fits, I’m not sure. It’s that clear bra stuff, it’s like a heavy clear wrap. Tey used to sell it in like a 10 pack that you would put on windshields for racing and when screwed up, you would just rip the top sheet off.
I emailed 3M about their protective films. They didn't recommend them for plastic because the plastic can off gas and cause issues. Thank you for all of your recommendations.
Why not a thin sheet of Lexan or Plexiglass applied on front ?
