ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides an overlay for overlying an edge, corner, or other non-planar extent of an object. The overlay includes first and second longitudinal portions interconnected to one another to form an included angle of generally 90.degree.. The first longitudinal portion has a plurality of segments, each having opposite end walls which form channels between adjacent segments. Each channel extends from a front channel opening to a longitudinally offset rear channel opening. Due to the channels between the segments, the segments are free to move relative to one another as the overlay is manipulated to conform to the non-planar extent of the object to be protected. At least some partial overlap always obtains between adjacent pairs of the segments so that the overlay provides protection irrespective whether it is overlying a non-planar extent which is generally concave or generally convex in shape.
