Ltemes, I'm aware of the 24-hour rule, but this seemed to be such an easy question and a satisfactory answer came quickly that I decided to award the points and close it right away. I thank all colleagues that posted and agreed with "posavasos", which is also a good alternative for those little round ones, but "cubierta protectora" fit perfectly for the text I had here. Thanks!

Posavasos Tambi�n est� perfecto para los "redonditos", pero para este texto que tengo aqu� "cubierta protectora" est� bien. �Gracias a todos!

Rafaela,
KudoZ rules suggest Askers wait 24 hrs. before closing questions, to allow colleagues in other time zones to participate and so the Asker can review all the answers.

Muchas gracias, Katherine. Sí, la verdad es que la respuesta elegida no creo que sea exactamente lo mismo que "coaster". Saludos! :o)
agree Oso (X) : Por supuesto, son las rueditas de distintos materiales, casi siempre decoradas para que el vaso no deje su huella. Creo que Rafa se apresuró demasiado a cerrar la pregunta. ¶:^)
