Everything can be wrapped in cling film, even the warning triangle!
You would never have considered it, but cling film can help dispel all those annoying sounds of loose objects being stored in the car. Just wrap them in the film and you will be pleasantly surprised to find that the annoying rattles will disappear immediately. On the other hand, don’t use it anyway: a first aid kit wrapped this way will surely make less noise, but you won’t be able to access it quickly in an emergency anymore. In absolute terms, the cling film will be especially useful as a windshield frost prevention. In winter, overnight, it is recommended to spread a piece of food paper on the glass surface. In the morning, once the frost has been removed, the view will be perfectly clear.
N.B : some drivers even wrap the tires in cling film, during a possible wheel change. The rubber is thus protected from dust and dirt. But to avoid degrading the material, be sure to pack carefully to prevent moisture from getting inside.
