Hi All,

Am after a decent car cover for my cars.

I have a couple of blue light weight covers but they seem to let all the dust through.

Just wondering if anyone has purchased something recently they are happy with?

Thanks Jeff

I bought a WeatherShield® HP from Cover Craft.

Custom fit made to order and delivered in a couple of days.

They have an extensive range of fabrics to suit different requirements. I chose the WeatherShield because it was for a car in a carport that could see some rain.

For a project car or complete car ?
For my project I bought one from repco supposedly waterproof ( don't know how they can write that).. So I kept that one and purchased one from super cheap (parachute type material) and put that over the top and it's been really good. It's purpose was mainly to keep dirty hands off it in the workshop do overall when using both covers it does it's job and keeps the bottom cover clean

Have found the Auto Technica covers the best and have had them on outside cars too , they will eventually get UV affected like many but i just get another when that happens.

I bought a Formfit from Covercraft, custom made for a torana hatch. Fits brilliantly. Washable if you have a big enough machine. Nice and soft on the inside so it will never mark or scratch paint. The Formfit is an inside cover only. Covercraft also makes all weather covers as well.
