Have seen TV ads recently about a roll on type paint that builders use to coat windows on building sites for protection. Has anyone used this on their 4wd rear windows or have an opinion on how it would go?
Cheers

They use it to stop paint getting on them usually and to define them as windows to workers.
A 4x Carton and some duct tape works ok
Also some of the stuff realestate signs are made out of Corflute???????

Have a look at this thread
here
We have used polycarbonate and held it on with 100mph tape - worked
well.

Polycarbonate is the go. get it at Bunnings in various thicknesses. Cut it with a jigsaw with the paper still on, cut slits that end in a 10mm hole to take the bend out (if your back window is curved) and fix it on with those black clips used on the old shade covers used quite a few years ago.
Glue the clips onto the glass with neutral silicone and they will not blow off. Undo the clips to clean the window and the poly.
Tip - Wash the poly carefully after it is wet as it does scratch.
