Quoted from finnflash:Becuse sometimes when you drop 5000 or more on a toy, putting something on it to keep it in nice shape is a good idea.
You must know my grandfather who would put seat protectors on his trucks. The seats were always in great shape when he sold his old, beat up, rusty truck.
If you keep it clean, the machine will stay in nice shape. This is how most do it, but to each their own.
The lexan protectors will get dirty and scratched over time and are more work to refresh than just cleaning ad waxing a pf.
I only commented because there were a couple of other threads that have popped up recently and I was curious if there was a product announcement or some other dimple/cc thread that prompted people to think about pf protectors en masse.
