On my Simi Gravel Bike I have a hard time with dings to the front of the down tube, inner side of the chain stay, and the inner sides of the forks. My solution was to use Helicopter tape on those specific areas. I had a roll left over from Army days. It's a little costly now days. You can also use clear Butyl tape or two part refrigerator tape. I have not tried Clear Gorilla tape yet.
