Car Cover Types

Whether you have a brand new car that you want to keep looking as good as the day you bought it or a vintage car that you have purchased as an investment, a durable car cover will keep your vehicle looking its very best. Once you decide to buy a car cover, there are a number of car cover types out there for you to choose from, depending on where you live and the conditions that your car, truck, station wagon, van, or SUV will encounter on a regular basis. Here are some of the different car cover types available:

Outdoor Car Covers: Some car cover types are designed to protect your car, truck, station wagon, van, or SUV from all elements, from snow and ice to dust and sand. They are made to fit your vehicle snugly, and they are extra thick to provide maximum strength and protection. Durable automotive car covers are a good idea if you want to protect your car when it is parked outside, as well as when it is parked in a garage or storage area. They provide excellent all-around coverage. A good example of a durable car cover is the Max Car Cover. The Max Car Cover is made from three layers of Endura Plus fabric, and it provides superior breathability and all-weather protection, including thorough UV protection and high water resistance.

Waterproof car covers: Although it's not always possible to avoid precipitation when you're driving, with an effective waterproof car cover, you can protect against water when your car is parked. A waterproof car cover is also a good choice for you if you want a car cover that will protect your vehicle from elements other than water, such as dust, snow, and pollen. Look for a waterproof car cover that is breathable to prevent the mold and mildew damage that can result if condensation gets trapped.

Sun protection car covers: If you live in a sunny state such as Arizona, California, or Florida, sun protection will likely be your main concern as you shop for a vehicle cover. Look for a car cover that is made from DuPont Tyvek™ material, like the Premier—DuPont Tyvek ® Cover which will keep your vehicle cool and clean by offering 99.8 percent protection from the sun.

Light and strong car covers: If you want superior protection for your vehicle, but you don't need the very top-of-the-line, extra-durable automobile car cover, a lighter version that still offers excellent protection may be a good option for you. For example, the Premier—DuPont Tyvek ® Cover is made from light and strong DuPont material that is soft enough to be gentle on your car yet tough enough to protect against sun, snow, rain, dust, and more. It is a great choice for any environment.

Indoor Car Covers: If you park your car, truck, SUV, station wagon or van in a garage and want a light-weight automobile car cover that will protect your vehicle from dust, dirt, and other elements, an indoor car cover is probably your best bet. Indoor Car Covers are the least expensive of the car cover types, and they provide good basic protection for your vehicle.
