Oxford do a roll of clear sticky plastic called paintsaver. You just cut them into the shape you want and stick them over stuff. I tried using half a roll on bodywork as protection from panniers but I kept getting air bubbles that irked me, so I removed them.

Anywhere that stocks Oxford products sell them. Paws would probably reccommend Hein Gericke Northampton.
