Will it stretch to conform to rounded surfaces?

Just thinking, marine grade carpet. Lots of choices and pretty tough. I'm guessing someone has tried this?

I inherited a polypropylene carpeted interior and front compartment.
It looks pretty nice when freshly vacuumed BUT.
It picks up a charge at any excuse and then it attracts crap from miles
away, and I live in a high R.H. area.
Anti-static spray does help some, but doesn't last and the spray wanders
away onto all the surfaces you just polished.

It hasn't made me cranky enough to rip it out though.
