Door Handle area and Tailgate protection (film?)

After using my truck for a month two areas of paint I'd like to protect are the top of the tailgate and the inside of the door handles. I hate the fingernail scratches that show up behind the door handles. Seems to be difficult to put up the tailgate without touching the paint. Most of the time when lifting the tailgate my hands are dirty which is not a good thing for the paint.

How do others handle these two areas?

Thanks

I had the entire front PPF'd along with the door handle pockets. I asp had them add a 1.5" strip of PPF along the top of the tailgate

Tailgate - I got this after I scratched the top of my tailgate. So easy to install and it looks like it was always part of the truck. Body shop priced repair at $1,200, and this piece did exactly what I needed for $120.
