Car Cover Buying Guide

What's the Right Car Cover for You?

Choosing a vechicle cover can be a difficult decision when you weigh in all the factors that need to be considered. There are many types of covers that are good in different environments and on different vehicles— but which is the right cover for you?

This guide should help you make that decision confidently. We've provided information about all our car covers below, so that you know that you'll recieve the protection you need with the fit that you want. Whether you're looking to keep dust off a garaged vehicle, or to protect paint from sap and rain, we have a cover for you. If you have any questions at all, please don't hesitate to give us a call at (888)872-6855. Our specialists are standing by to help you find the right cover for your car.

Protection

One of the first things to consider when selecting a car cover is the kind of protection your vehicle needs. Will it be stored in a garage or out in the elements? Will it need protection from precipitation, tree sap, bird droppings, and scratches? The location of your vehicle should largely determine what kind of cover will protect your car best.

All Empire Covers are suited for outdoor use, however, some are best suited for different environments. Our Standard Cover provides light protection against the elements, and is more popular for indoor use. The Empire Deluxe Cover offers moderate outdoor protection, and is a step up from the Standard Cover in terms of dust and sun protection, but fares similarly against rain.

Empire offers several covers that are well suited to rain, including the only truly 100% Waterproof Car Cover on the market, the Plus Cover. The Plus has ultrasonic, double-stiched seams and a microporous center that prevents moisture from getting through, but allows breathability.

The best cover for overall outdoor protection is the Max Cover. UV treated for protection against sun, highly water resistant, and three layers of breathable Endura Plus material set this cover apart in its superior protection against the elements. We offer this cover exclusively, and are so confident with its performance we offer a Lifetime Warranty.

Durability

Empire offers some of the most durable car covers on the market today. Superior materials (like the DuPont™ Printed Tyvek™ used in our Sunguard Cover), double-stiched seams, and UV treatment are just some of the important qualities that make our covers last. Our Max Cover is so durable, it comes with a Lifetime Warranty.

Size

Most Empire Covers are semi-custom, and we can fit virtually any vehicle. From Acura to Volvo, we'll get you covered. All our covers have an elastic hem all the way around to ensure that the cover fits snugly and securely. We also offer a cable & lock kit to ensure that your cover stays secure to your vehicle.

It's important to get the right fit for your car, and we have several ways to ensure that you purchase the correct sized cover. You can search by make, model and year, or by dimensions (if you've measured your vehicle). If you're unsure about sizing, please give us a call at (888)872-6855, and we'll be more than happy to help you find the right fit.
