IDK, you could get a big sheet of PTFE (Teflon<sup>tm</sup>) from a US manufacturer.

here's one: https://catalog.fluoropolymerproducts.com/viewitems/ptfe-and-teflon-sheet/ptfe-and-teflon-sheet-2?&forward=1&os=y

.060" PTFE rolls up no problem.

Although fold up not so much.

That's pretty cool. I still prefer my lift though. :D

Sheet linoleum. Great for break dancing, too.

I've got a bad habit of picking up spare styrofoam sheets on the side of the road that have blown off trucks or building sites.

They aren't cheap off the shelf, but off the ground, free. They are comfortable, provide excellent insulation from the ground, and smooth out any and all gravel/bolts. They are also lower profile than the car dollys.

Where your magical carpet wins is in the stowability and movement department.

After using the stryofoam sheets, I see the possibilties in the carpet thingee. I am tired of dolly wheels getting stuck on random bolts underneath me. My 10mm sockets have no place to hide.

Only disadvantage to the carpet/styrofoam I see it the ability to move long distances sideways when under the car when you need a better angle on something.

as far as the carpet, I am a believer. I might buy one.

This is what I use........very slick so easy to slide across. Has some padding. Fluid resistant surface - can be wiped clean as needed. And best of all....at $15.39......CHEAP! :D

I also use these boat cushions when I have to put a knee down on either inside or outside projects. Easy to stow away and just large enough to kneel on comfortably. Plus can be used when boating!

Mine were all salvaged from curbsides but even if purchased new they are not expensive.

I have a foam mat that folds in half and boat cushions for kneeling.
