TomB Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 Has anyone got any off cuts of automotive carpet, or surplus Caterham interior carpet pieces cluttering the garage up? I would like some to make boot lining pieces to protect the inside of the boot from any dinges or dents from anything rolling around the boot.

BigCol Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 I bought the world's cheapest black yoga mat and cut that up to line the inside of my boot - does the job well and looks nice and neat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomB Posted December 18, 2019 Author Share Posted December 18, 2019 Now that's a good idea. Similarly I've found EVA rubber sheeting on eBay which would be thinner and more accommodating for corners. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/CLOSED-CELL-NEOPRENE-PLAIN-SPONGE-EVA-FOAM-RUBBER-SHEET-1-10mm-Gaskets-Seals/401965415895?hash=item5d97017dd7:m:m7rxBY56DsrQEL3rtdnQv5A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7 wonders of the world Posted December 20, 2019 Share Posted December 20, 2019 the one I posted is available from 1mm to 10mm I think, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CharlieC Posted December 25, 2019 Share Posted December 25, 2019 Do you still need off-cuts? I have some left-over interior carpet which I removed recently from my car. Let me know if you want it and I will measure/photograph, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrightpayne Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 Cheap camping sleep mat < 5 quid. Decathlon or Go Outdoors have them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Englishmaninwales Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 The camping mat is good also to line the rear wheel arches to give protection from stones causing star cracks on the outer gel coat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
