    I seem to remember someone mentioning they had magnetic corner protectors.

    Anyone know where I can find these or was I imagining this?

    I made my own set of them. I took the regular plastic corner protectors and put some magnets inside them. The magnets have 3M adhesive on the back of them and I got them at Hobby Lobby... they work good for steel plate

    I just use ducky! But I'm sure the magnets stick to steel better than ducky....although ducky sticks better to everything else better than magnets :p

    To be honest, I found an even easier way to pad the corners, and now just carry 8 moving blankets. Lay them on the corners and chain them down with the load. Makes it a lot easier, but I sometimes use the magnet protectors if I forget my blankets and I've already chained.
