I got this car vaccum where its good and portable. But the nozzle at the end is plastic and when i get into crevices it probally will scratch the panels etc.. Its good vaccuum but i wanna somehow wrap the nozzle with some padding material so i can just dive into all different areas o fthe car withouth scratching anything and save time. Like my x3 seatbelt insert holes have like these side soft padding where it doesn't rub against the middle panel which got me thinking of this. lol

What mckobe said.

Just use some fine sandpaper and sand all edges smooth. Or you can also take a little bit of duct tape and wrap the end a bit.

I dint find that the ends bother the panels much, it’s seats you need to be careful on. A tiny snag on the end of your crevice tool can really scratch up leather or even soft cloth seats. I lightly sand my tips regularly and never have a problem.

IMO:
Wrapping it up with some padding material
won’t allow too much of the just diving into
many crevices, and other similar tight spots.

Instead:
•This is where some of that good ol’
Painters’ Tape will come in handy.
{Added bonus: It won’t gum-up any of
the various types of nozzle attachments.}
