Car Covers By Covercraft™

COVER FABRICS - Which One is Right for You?

We offer a wide selection of fabrics, to allow you to select the one that will meet your vehicle's protection needs and budget.  Different fabrics offer different levels of protection performance, and some focus on protecting from a specific element, like intense sun exposure or dust.  Our range of fabrics is based on over 35 years experience in manufacturing covers.  Use the chart below to help identify which fabric is best suited for the protection needs you require.  We've tried to be as realistic as possible, in showing how the fabrics perform in certain conditions, but keep in mind this is our opinion based on performance comparisons with other fabrics currently used for vehicle covers.

This is a prime example of what NOT to do to  your vehicle!  All Covercraft fabrics are "breathable" to allow good air circulation under the cover.  That's important because it assures that any moisture or condensation under the cover can easily evaporate, and it also reduces heat build-up on hot days.  Remember, rain water (not acid rain) won't hurt a vehicles finish, it's UV rays and pollutants in the air that cause the most damage to the exterior and interior finish.

For example good basic all weather four season protection is provided by the Multibond® / BLOCK-IT™ 200 Series fabric or Deluxe / BLOCK-IT380 SERIES covers, better all weather protection is provided by Technalon® / BLOCK-IT™ SERIES 400 and the best all weather protection is provided by NOAH® and the Covercraft exclusive WeatherShield™. For paint protection from dust and dirt during indoor storage, consider Tan Flannel or Dustop®.  If a cover is being used in an extreme sun environment, Sunbrella® may be the best cover to use.  It all depends on the protection level you want to achieve, and the amount of money you want to budget, to protect your investment.  In the long run the cost of the cover is minimal compared to the replacement cost of what you are protecting.  Remember, a cover not only protects BOTH the inside and outside of a vehicle, it also acts as a theft-deterrent by keeping the vehicle out of view to potential thieves.
