I've used the door edge protector shown below on the wheel arch return flange.

Having seen this post via another recent similar post, on the basis that it's tried and long term tested by NDF (and has good logic in that there is no metal in it) I've just ordered 2 x 2M strips of these for £5.98 delivered.

Vaseline is also suitable I believe, and available from most supermarkets. 2011 Range Rover Vogue SE 4.4 TDV8

@ndf - would your grease 'paint' do the job on the rear tow eye too (showing minor signs of oxidised discolouration) or is there an alternate rattle can solution for the rear tow eye?

Today bought the Comma grease (£6.99 Halfords) as advised by ndf and set about fitting the rear arch strips recommended by ndf too.

@Joe90 - definition = "A flange is an external or internal ridge, or rim (lip)... " ... and we'll park it there methinks
