Car Cover
What car cover seems to work the best for outdoor use. I purchased the CoverCraft Weathershield HD and am disappointed with its performance. They say that no car cover is water proof, but the morning due leaks through this cover....plus it leaves fine scratches on the tops of the fenders and quarter panels.

I have a 4 layer Wolf. Works well and have not noticed the scratch problem. Downside is that it is heavy and takes up a lot of room even when folded.
I read somewhere either here or on one of the other sites that they don't want the covers to be completely waterproof because then the water that did get thru would be trapped. Better to let some in and then let it evaporate out.

I've had a Noah by Wolf for over a year, including heavy snow last winter and works well and never scratched the paint. Most importantly, as someone else pointed out, you should NEVER put a cover on a dirty (even dusty) car. Use a Califonia duster or wipe it down before putting the cover on.

I am on my 3 Noah by Wolf (3 different cars) and really like the cover. It is also a h#ll of a lot easier putting it on my Vette than on my F150 SuperCrew
