February 2, 2010 on 3:04 pm | By admin | In AutosThe specialized cut of a custom-fit car cover is far and away the best choice to wrap up and protect your vehicle. When deciding which car cover is right for your vehicle, we advise that you consider: • Where you park and how often you use your vehicle • The weather in your area • What color is right for your vehicle and storage needs Where You Park and How Often You Use Your vehicle: • When you park outside and cover up every day, you may want to choose a lightweight outdoor car cover that’s simple to use and easy to fold. • For those who park in crowded lots or on streets with children at play and heavy pedestrian traffic, a thicker heavyweight outdoor car cover that provides some dent and ding protection is best. • If you garage your vehicle and frequently cover and uncover it, a lightweight indoor car cover is ideal. • Choose a heavier indoor car cover to keep your classic safe for long-term storage. • A super-soft indoor car cover lets you pamper your “baby” and keep it safe and secure. The Weather in Your Area The ideal car cover for your vehicle is greatly influenced by your local weather. Many materials have been developed to deal with specific inclement weather conditions. Rainy parts of the country like the Pacific Northwest and Deep South would demand an outdoor car cover with exceptional water resistance. The coastal areas along the Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf of Mexico need a car cover that will protect from and last in salty air. In the sunniest zones of the country like the desert Southwest, a Coverking car cover with extra UV and photo degradation protection and reflective properties makes the most sense. Tips on What Color is Right for Your vehicle and Storage Needs Car covers are offered in an array of colors, but picking the right hue isn’t solely a matter of personal taste. Here are a few tips and points of reference to help you with your choice: • If you live in a sunnier climate, you’ll want a lighter colored fabric for outdoor storage. • If you have a lighter colored vehicle, a lighter colored fabric is safer for your paint. Bright colors, although thoroughly, tested could bleed under certain conditions. • If you’re looking for style, a vibrant color can lend your vehicle character or compliment its finish.cars trucks
