Well all righty then.


I'd probably stick a microfiber cloth under there like shawn e said, and I've seen others put a removable fender bib on there as well....the microfiber's less effort though.

Roger that. But, I'd be concerned about the microfiber holding moisture [could cloud the paint] or trapping dirt [turning itself into sandpaper]. It's **** like this [not to mention the voices in my head] that keeps me awake all night...

Yeah...it'd be the kinda thing where you'd probably only leave it that way for a day or two before having to check the cloth. I don't know how much dirt would really get under there, but it's the not knowing that keeps me up.
