Which Outdoor Car Cover To Choose

Please consider the environmental factors when choosing the best fabric.
When buying a custom outdoor cover consider your climate: hot, humid,
sunny, rainy, snowy, sleet, hail and protect your vehicle from: acid rain,
air born pollutants, flying debris, UV rays, bird droppings, grease, dirt,

grime that protects your vehicle’s paint finish from dents, scratches,
paint fading and discoloration.


Evolution 4 Recommended for climates with lots of snow and sub-zero

temperatures.  This fabric uses 4-layer polypropylene construction for maximum protection in all weather conditions.
Naturally moisture resistant. Acid rain, industrial pollutants, tree sap and bird droppings will not harm the fabric. Dries Quickly. Moisture is not absorbed by the fabric fibers. Breathable allows air to circulate through the fabric. Dust  and
pollution barrier the two middle layers of E4 fabric act as a filtration barrier against most airborne pollutants as small as 0.1 microns (smaller than fine talc).Impact Absorption
4-layer thickness absorbs impacts better than any other vehicle cover fabric to help protect the finish from nicks, dings, dents, and scratches. Available in Blue, Gray
Or Tan.

 

Noah recommended for climates with moderate rain . This fabric actually stops water, yet it "breathes" to allow any trapped moisture, seam seepage or condensation to easily evaporate.  The unique construction process results in a cover with maximum all-weather protection... highly water resistant, dust resistant, UV resistant and breathable to make sure moisture and/or heat don't stay under the cover.  Made in the USA, the fabric weights only 4.45 oz./sq. yd., so it's easy to handle and fold!

Protective Outer Layer a bi-component spunbond, using sheath core technology. The inner core is polypropylene for strength, with a polyethylene wrap for softness.  A silver-gray color was selected because of its heat-resistant properties.  The fabric is also treated with UV inhibitors for extended outdoor use. Micro-porous Middle layer The barrier layer is breathable film, a proprietary stretch-film technology developed exclusively for Kimberly-Clark.  The film is stretched and subjected to a chemical process that creates microscopic holes smaller than droplets of water or dust, yet large enough to allow moisture vapor to escape. Soft, paint-protecting inner layer A bi-component fabric made with polyethylene and nylon. This combination results in an exceptionally high strength-to-weight ratio, with the "soft touch" necessary for today's water-based paint finishes.

Available in soft gray.


Multibond recommended for climates hot, dry climates with a little rain.

Multibond uses 3-layer polypropylene construction for moisture and dust resistance, and the fibers are treated for extra UV resistance.  This U.S. made fabric offers good, basic protection and is an excellent value. Lightweight easy to use, and less bulky for compact storage. Soft and non-abrasive will not scratch paint. Breathable allows moisture and condensation to evaporate. Moisture, mold  and UV resistant
Polypropylene fibers are naturally moisture resistant and treated for extra UV protection Good dust protection when used indoors, keeps vehicle cleaner than most woven fabrics 

Available in Gray

 

Weather Shield recommended for climates with lots and lots of rain.  Weather shield uses the patented nextec encapsulation process, originally developed for high-performance outdoor sports-wear. The encapsulation process places an ultra-thin film around the fabric fibers and precisely places a durable, breathable barrier within the woven polyester fabric to complete the high-performance process.

Polymers inside the fabric, to shed water, and stop dust, bird droppings, tree sap and industrial pollutants from reaching your vehicle's finish. The result is a fabric that provides maximum protection, but isn't bulky and hard to store.  Sheds water encapsulation process assures fabric sheds water as soon as it hits the cover. Superior Dry Time if the cover has been sitting out in the rain you only need to shake it and the residue moisture will easily dry, in the trunk or on the car. BreathableAllows any heat or condensation under the cover to easily escape. UV ResistantSpecial additives prevent UV degradation and protect the vehicles finish and interior. Dust-proofPatented fiber encapsulation process prevents dust from filtering through the fabric.Scratch-lessThe encapsulation process is not affected by heat or cold your HOME washer and dryer.



Sunbrella recommended for climates that are  hot, really dry with lots of intense sun like Arizona.The ultimate fabric for intense sun environments.Provides protection, and years of service, in intense sun areas, like Arizona and other areas of the sun-belt, where UV rays will rapidly degrade the paint and interior.   Because of the use of acrylic fibers, which are naturally UV resistant, Sunbrella has long been the recognized leader in long-wearing marine fabrics for bimni tops, sail covers and deck enclosures.  Besides marine uses, Sunbrella is also used for commercial awnings due to it's ability in providing UV blockage with a rich, woven finish.  The acrylic fibers are solution dyed, before the fabric is woven, to assure the color goes all the way through the fabric.  Using a special finish process, the material is then softened for use as a car cover fabric.  The fabric is exceptionally strong and coupled with it's UV resistance it also makes an excellent cover for RV's and trailers that spend extended time stored outside.Long Lasting Strength - Acrylic fibers suffer minimal loss of strength from exposure to heat, moisture and UV. Fade Resistant - Colors are a result of pigments which are actually built into the fibers (solution dyed), instead of just dying the finished fabric. Water Resistant - Treated for moisture resistance (but remember, this material is primarily for UV protection). Rot, Mildew Resistant - Acrylic fibers resist growth that occurs in moist environments. Material colors available - Pacific Blue (D1), Sky Blue (D2), Cadet Gray (D4), Jet Black (D5), Toast (D6)
