The present invention is directed to the field of driveway or pavement protectors. Oftentimes, people will detail their automobiles or coat the tires of automobiles with liquid solutions or coating material to maintain the shiny look of the tires in a new condition. These materials can be applied from a spray can or by use of a brush. One problem with these materials is that some of the liquid from the brush or the spray can may overshoot the tire and run down the front surface of the tire and onto the pavement or surface under the car. When that happens, the pavement or surface may be left with a hard to remove stain. The primary object of the present invention is to solve this problem by providing an easy-to-use protective device that fits under the tire so that the liquid material does not contact the pavement or driveway.
A driveway protector for preventing stains to a driveway due to the application of coating products to the outside of an automobile tire comprising a generally rectangular flat collection device with a cut-out in the flat collection device adapted to fit around an automobile tire; and a handle connected to the generally flat collection device. whereby a user grips the handle to slide the driveway protector around the outside surface of an automobile tire.
The present invention will now be described in terms of the presently preferred embodiment thereof. The description set forth herein should not be construed as limiting the scope of the appended claims.
The driveway protector 10 is illustrated in the drawings. As can be seen in
