The Best Car Covers for Sun & Heat

A car is a long-term investment, so it is crucial to protect it from the elements as much as possible. Prolonged sun exposure can fade the paint job, cause cracking and peeling, and make your car interior hot in the summer months. If you have access to a garage, you can park your vehicles inside when not in use. But not all car owners have the luxury of a fully enclosed space for their vehicle. If your home does not have a garage or protected space for your vehicle, a car cover can keep your pride and joy from being damaged by the sun and heat in the hot summer months. Here are some of the options for choosing the best car cover for sun and heat so you can protect your car and prolong its lifespan.

Advantages of Using a Weather-Resistant Car Cover

Weatherproof covers don’t just offer protection from the sun and heat. The best car covers offer other benefits such as:

• Accidental damage protection
  Accidents happen; however, if you have a thick and durable car cover over your vehicle, it provides some protection from accidental scratches and dings.
• All-weather protection
  While quality car covers offer protection from UV rays and insulate your vehicle against the heat, they also protect from other weather conditions like rain, snow, hail, and high winds.
• Beat the birds
  Bird droppings are highly acidic and can deteriorate your car’s paintwork. Car covers also keep insects, tree sap, and leaves off your car.
• Less time and money spent at the car wash
  A car cover keeps your car clean, whether you store it inside or outdoors, preventing dust and pollen from building up and making it easier to clean.
• Could deter thieves and vandals
  While a car cover isn’t going to stop a determined thief, having your car snugly wrapped in a cover may deter the opportunistic thief.

Features of a Good Sun & Heat Resistant Car Cover

High-quality all-weather car covers are an investment in the life of your car. When shopping for a car cover, there are several features to look for.

• Thick Construction
  Look for several layers of protection, including a waterproof outer and finishing with a soft lining on the inside to protect your car from scratches. Our Platinum Shield and Ultimate Shield covers are very thick and feature a super-soft fleece lining.

• UV Reflective
  The sun and heat can quickly damage your car’s exterior and interior, so choose a cover that’s been treated with UV inhibitors. Our Platinum, Ultimate, and Deluxe Shield cover offer advanced UV protection.
• Breathability
  You don’t want moisture from the ground to get trapped around your car, as it encourages mildew and mold growth. Our covers are made of breathable microporous material to keep water from entering the cover while allowing ground moisture to evaporate.
• Tight Fit
  Loose or badly fitting covers can damage your paintwork on windy days as they flap around and scratch your vehicle’s surface. At CarCovers.com, we offer semi-custom or fully custom car covers. These sizes ensure your car cover fits your vehicle like a glove to minimize wind damage.
• Durable
  Make sure a car cover is designed for outdoor use before you buy, as some are made for indoor use only. Our Platinum Shield car cover comes with a lifetime warranty for your peace of mind. It is made from the highest-grade materials, including a reflective urethane coating to protect from sun, heat, and water. The Ultimate Shield cover comes with a ten-year warranty, and the Deluxe Shield has a five-year warranty.
