Remove cover during rain to keep dirt from washing through and sticking dirt and cover to car?

My cover is surprisingly waterproof. I left it in place all winter with no water penetrating to the finish. No need to remove it a far as I can see. It is only 1 year old and maybe things can change with age but it works better than I anticipated. I always go over the cover with a blower before I remove it to prevent debris from contacting the finish.

I leave the car covered for months at a time parked on the street. When I remove the cover it does not stick, but there is some dirt that is on the car. I keep it covered it protect the car from the sunlight and the bird droppings.

That would not be practical. At all. Classic Accessories 10-019-261001-00 Overdrive Polypro III cover on my Durango sheds most water. You want some breathability or you risk mold or paint damage. You want a snug fit. Classic has elastic gathers. Rain-X has better tie downs. Add additional paracord as needed if you park in the wind. Both brands are better made than Budge UD 1 or 2.

no! In a Heavy rain the cover will be saturated and very heavy if left on the car and your car will be wet. It does offer protection in a drizzly or very light rain though if dusty etc your car underneath the cover might have spots.

I never leave it out in the rain, mainly because of the wind. They do suggest, however, that you can waterproof it by spraying it with Scotchguard or similar product and letting it dry before installation.

I really like mine. Keeps all the dog dirt off the seat. Also there is a backing on it that keeps the moisture away from your seats.Mine didn't have a bad smell. If it does to you just toss it in the washer on gentle then hang to dry, that's what I do.Also make sure you car has rear head rests. The cover has straps that wrap around them to hold it up.

I ordered the cargo net with my unit. I did not see an option for a rain cover.

I used two ratchet straps to secure it. When the vehicle wasn't moving I just removed the ratchet from the inside. Because rain was able to get in while not moving.

I have not washed my covers. They have been free of mold and significant dirt.I suppose a soapy water solution would be okay on the exterior side.

As shown in the picture, there is a cover to control ambers. There is not a rain cover, if that is your question

I suppose that would depend on your usage, and the environment that you'll be using it in. Generally it shouldn't get too dirty. Cleaning the cover won't be much of an issue. Best solution would be to use a window cleaner and a cloth. Always works for me :-)

Per the manufacturer - Soft yet durable backing layer pampers paint finish and protects vehicle from sun, dirt, dust, moisture and pollution. This cover is NOT waterproof.

Yes, they make a cover. No, rain does not interfere with performance. Cover is used only when it is out of season and you are not taking it down...

I'm not sure if this cover is rain or snow proof because we keep the car in the garage. We just bought it to keep the cat prints off the car. It does seem to keep the dust out and polishes the car as you take the cover off and fits like it said it would. Overall, very happy with the cover.

No. Turn the car over so the wheels are up. Behind the rear wheel is a small pull-lever, push is toward the wheel and the cover comes right off

Yes it should, but you should know that it just soaks up water,so even if your car is clean it will be dirty later as all the sediment in the air percolates through the cover. However, it works fine on dry days.

yes, it can keep rain out. keep in mind that there are fasteners that have to go through the strip making a hole and that the surface the strip is touching must make a good seal.

Hey Barbara, depends on how hard rain hits the door. If it is light, it will keep occasional rain out if the sweep hits the door sill right. However, if you get hard driving rain against the door, I would have a seal under the door, something high quality

Frank I have had mine in the rain and see no evidence of staining or run off. Nice cover.
