can i lay this over the luggage racks on my SUV, then place a car top boat on top of it? I'm looking for something that will help prevent scratching.

That is exactly what it intended for and it works great. We drove from Michigan to Florida and back and it kept the storage unit from sliding and scratching the roof. Excellent add-on for a roof rack boat.

I would think so. It warns against glass that is soft though such as a sun roof. I would almost try CLR first but u could try it in a small area to check for scratching.

This has worked great for ventilation in the back windows of my Pathfinder but, as te picture shows, the window is still about half way up and I imagine the scratching could still e a problem. Good luck!

I am pretty OCD about cars so I would not use this if it hurt my car in any way. If you keep the pads clean and properly apply the stickers to the clips, you will be OK. I washed and waxed my car before every time I put the rack up on my car. Had it for about a year and the rack is on about 90% of the time and my car still looks great.

i don't believe it will scratch a metal roof due to the plastic rollers it rides on, but it may be susceptible to tearing if it were to catch any kind of edge. If you can keep the tarp from any sharp edges and use it on days when its not to windy its a great product. Hope this helps.

While it is the most impressive cover I have come across, I am not certain it will prevent from cat scratches. (I currently have 4 cars with various covers.) The reason I say so is that I have placed this cover underneath a cheaper cover to help prevent such issues from animals.

You cats may push this screen over if they start scratching on this screen. I would not recommend if you have cats OR like the cat behaviorist recommends, put a scratching post in front of the place where they like to scratch so they won't scratch a piece of furniture.

If you put carpeting over the wrap to protect it, it may work. It could start to break down if exposed to constant beating like one could imagine would happen if you are getting stuff in and out of your trunk.

I've had no problems with that. You could put a coating on them, or place a piece of rubber under them if desired. My suggestion is to make sure that the area that you place the hooks is clean first so dirt doesn't cause a scratch. I've used this on two of my cars without any issues.

Yes. It will scratch your roof top. We are using ours for the third year but will also be putting a blanket b/w the mat and bag b/c we have a new car.

Joyce it would be worth a try. I have used it for all sorts of things. It does not scratch. Kathleen

Yes, my trunk is scratched on the sides from the hooks and I will have to find some way to cover the hooks.

I looked at picture on the box and figured it out that way. I use a sofe piece of material under each side of the part that rests on the trunk to prevent scratching the car. Rather simple I think.

The bottom side of this is a a different material than the top side. It is not a snug fit so it will move around on the seat a little if the dog moves around on it. I am not for sure it would scratch the leather, but I could see that it might over a period of time. If you flipped it over and put the cloth side against the seat, that would probably not hurt the leather but then you might lose the waterproof part of the cover. I don't have leather seats so I can't really say for sure. I will say that it's probably better to have it covering the leather than having a dogs claws on the leather. :)

Not sure I understand the question...reduce damage done? If you're asking if it will prevent damage, I wouldn't recommend as the casing doesn't stay in place at the top. It does have a ridge around the screen that would prevent scratching when setting face down.

It could, we put a piece of Styrofoam under it to prevent any scratches. Connie G.

Didn't work for me. Had to insert it between console and passenger seat (front) and my passengers move the seats a lot, dislodging the carrier. My console is, I think, non-scratchable.
