How To Use A Pool Noodle To Protect Your Garage Walls From Damage
By KELLY CATLIN
To protect your garage walls from damage and prevent scuffs on your vehicle, you can use pool noodles as protective bumpers that prevent car doors from directly hitting the wall.
It's advised to use hollow pool noodles and wear cut-resistant gloves for this hack. Start by cutting each noodle down the middle to create a flat surface to attach to
the walls.
Next, thoroughly clean the wall with rubbing alcohol to ensure that the mounting tape sticks effectively. Once the walls are dry, attach your pool noodles using a
strong adhesive.
Gorilla Heavy Duty Mounting Tape or Velcro Extreme Mounting Tape are ideal for this purpose. Also, make sure you affix the noodles where car doors are most likely to hit the walls.
While this method is cost-effective, it's important to remember that prolonged use of double-sided tape as an adhesive could potentially cause damage to your walls.
