Car covers have been around for a long time now, but in the last four decades Covercraft car covers have revolutionized the market by offering better fabrics and custom patterns. Early car covers were made up of simple cloth and then of plastic. The idea was to keep the car protected against dust and water. Today, car covers are made up of highly specialized materials that offer vital protection to the exterior of the vehicle. Car covers are essentially categorized according to their use, namely, interior car covers and exterior car covers. Car covers can be further classified as universal car covers or custom car covers.
Covercraft custom patterned covers offer a perfect fit that universal covers simply cannot. Universal car covers are made to fit all types of vehicles; they are a one-size-fit-all type of cover. Often universal car covers have their disadvantages, they don’t always fit properly and offer less protection than what is required. In contrast, custom car covers offer great protection to the exterior of any car, and are custom fit to the specific make and model of a car. They are designed with the shape and contours of particular vehicles in mind and that’s the reason these covers fit perfectly and offer maximum protection.
The materials used to make Covercraft custom car covers often depend upon the intended use of the car cover. The materials used for an indoor car cover will be different from that of the covers used for outdoors. Outdoor car covers use the highest quality of fabric in order to provide the best protection for the elements of nature and also man-made forces. The outdoor car covers use materials that withstand the harsh weather conditions such as sun, rain and snow. Also keep in mind that a cover not only protects both the inside and outside of a vehicle, but it also detours theft by keeping the vehicle out of sight to potential thieves.
Polyester, flannel and acrylic fibres are the most common materials used in the manufacture of custom car covers. Some covers are made up of polyester and cotton that are durable and effective for sun’s rays and rain protection while being soft on the finish of your car. Others may contain polyester and cotton.
All Covercraft fabrics are breathable to allow proper air circulation under the cover. This is important because it reduces heat build-up on warm days and ensures that any moisture or condensation under the cover can easily evaporate. Keep in mind, simple rain water (not acid rain) will not hurt a vehicle's finish; pollutants in the air and UV rays cause the most damage to the exterior and interior finish.
