I want to protect the flat surfaces in my vans garage. I was thinking PVC sheet or something similar but I can not find anything suitable (at the right price or locally).

Does anyone have any ideas please?

I used a sheet of the white plastic sign writers use. It proved to be very resilient.

I use the dinner table heat insulation ( bought by the meter) cut it to size , double side adhesive tape to keep in in position...keeps the warmth in the van, protect's the Paper:Sad: wood veneer of the garage walls and partially stops the contents ratting against the floor etc etc:Cool:

I like the plastic idea but dunno where to buy it

Plywood would be ok but trying to avoid all that dust etc

Table protector.............hmm a bit pricey

I had wondered about vinyl flooring but thats not cheap

Thanks so far guys

We use the interlocking mats which connect like a jigsaw to line our small box trailer so similar to a garage. As with table insulation material used double sided tape to keep them in place. Often get them quite cheap in Lidl or the like. Some people use similar as a mat or groundsheet for an awning so double use.

For the floor in the garage we used 1/2 phenolic plywood very hard wearing and waterproof

hippo tape - it is the plastic that you had one your carpet when you viewed your van - sticky back stuff, good as it can be renewed.

Or I quite like the garage floor tile idea mentioned earlier! Far better fix! Stops sliding items/rattles etc

We use breathable groundsheet material in the boot bit of our MH. Protects the surface and stops stuff from sliding around. Also very cheap.
