  • Car door upholstery protective shield and method of use of the same
    Patent number: 10532703
    Abstract: A car door upholstery protective shield includes a one piece resilient body. The body includes a spine having a first end, a second end, a first side edge and a second side edge. A protective sheet depends downwardly from the first side edge. A first door engagement tab on the second side edge projects outwardly past the first end. A second door engagement tab on the second side edge projects outwardly past the second end. A cutaway gripping area in the spine creates a flex region in the spine, such that manual upward pressure in the gripping area causes the spine to bow upwardly in the flex region to bring the first end and the second end closer together and upon release of the manual pressure the spine resiliently returns to original shape and length.
