Indoor Car Cover Indoor car covers were
probably first produced for dealers who wanted to keep the latest
model cars and luxury vehicles under an attractive cover for display.
But as the style became fashionable, owners of exclusive and vintage
cars also started keeping their loved cars under the protection
of a body fitting custom indoor car cover. Today most people, who
are conscious of the value and worth of their vehicles, protect
their precious passions and keep them well covered under an indoor
car cover.
However, when a buyer is out in the market looking for an indoor
car cover, he or she should focus on two basic points, namely…
- What type of usage the cover may be subjected to… and
- What kind of performance is expected out of the cover.
Since the level of performance is of paramount interest, let us
do some research on this.
Performance of the Indoor Car Cover
The foremost duty of an indoor car cover is to protect the car
or the SUV from dirt and dust that is incessantly settling on the
fine paintwork of the vehicle and silently but surely spoiling it
with scratchy strokes. The other side of the coin may be yet more
complex. The indoor car cover, if it is not made of fabric, which
is as soft as bed linen, may itself damage the paint.
As you know, the paint on a vehicle's body is not more than 0.006"
thick and dust particles can very well rub the dazzle off it, unless
it is prevented from doing so. Therefore, an indoor car cover fabric
should be tough enough so that no dust particle may come in contact
with the paintwork on the one hand while the material itself should
be soft enough not to create any abrasive stroke on the car.
Besides, an Indoor car cover should be thoroughly 'breathable'
so that any moisture or heat trapped under the cover is allowed
to come into contact with the outside atmosphere and evaporate,
leaving the car or the SUV absolutely dry and glossy. Now, let us
see what kind of usage an indoor car cover may be subjected to.
Type of usage for an Indoor Car Cover
Your selection of an indoor car cover may largely depend on factors
like how often it is likely to be used. For a person who takes out
his or her car more often would logically go for a lightweight indoor
cover for covering/ uncovering of the vehicle with the least hassle.
These covers are also easier to pack and store. Satinstretch™
car covers fall under this category.
However, for those who have to leave their vehicle for extended
periods of time, a heavy multi-layered cover would be ideal. Yet
another type of usage involves keeping the car parked in a garage
that is much too crowded and chances of an inadvertent ding are
many.
Also important for a good dependable indoor car cover is its treatment
for control of mildew, moisture and rust.
