protective film
Scratch-preventing layer
A protective film is a thin layer applied to a surface to shield it from damage, dirt, or wear.
Screen protectors on phones are protective films, as are the plastic sheets covering new appliances or furniture: Don't forget to peel off the protective film.
The term also describes coatings that form naturally or chemically, like the oxide layer on aluminum that prevents further corrosion.
