Does this cover protect from hail damage?

Dwayne, NO, it will not. This cover is a very high caliber UV protective cover. The material is very thin, making it easy to wash in a commercial sized machine. Dry on LOW heat. My earlier response was concerning a BUDGE cover. Sorry for the confusion. Howard.

Hail, less than golf ball size: yes. Velocity (of the wind-driven hail) is the key. Very good cover for outdoor use. To protect against hail, think about a carport. The materials are available at Lowe's, and www.diynetwork.com has lots of great how to videos. Hope this helps you.

Lets think. Cars made from sheet metal don't always withstand hailstorms. If it is the garden variety hailstorm that doesn't dent you'd car, I think it would be fine. If it is the major hailstorm that dents your car, better cover this thing up.

I have mine outside in the elements and it survived our Michigan winter with 50mph wind gusts and -20 temps. It will probably get me thru one more season. If you want a cover that lasts many seasons you will pay three times or more than what this cover costs.

Not 100% but does protect from rain. Will not from a drop in a sink of water.

It does a pretty good job of protecting the car from rain, dust, and the sun. I don't know about snow in Texas. I didn't have it for long. I sold the car and the cover went with it.

It doesn't help with the rain or bugs. But it looks nice and protects against rock chips so I would recommend it.

I'm not a botanist, but I believe that this could be used as hail protection over a full-sun garden. All you will need to figure out is how to support the mesh.

I like this cover a lot. I have the HD model and used it in summer and winter and never a leak. I would, however, order the F1 (fiberglass) instead of the HD. I recently was in a hail storm and the aluminum was pretty badly dented. However, it still didn't leak. The F1 states that it resists hail. I can't say enough good things about this type of cover. It is so practical and secure to use and looks great as well. I just ordered the F1 replacement.

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

The front of the cover has a soft seal that will cover the front lip. It does not seem to leak water during rain storms.

I have mine protected from rain but no other elements in a carport. It is doing well.

Hello I am unable to answer your question, but the quality of the item is well worth the price. We live in Minnesota and so far this cover has with stood wind rain and small hail. It kept the inside of the cart dry. Well worth the price and the fit is great on our EZ GO 2 seat golf cart.

We cover it to keep it clean. I don't think rain will affect it since it is metal with powder coat finish.

I have not had a problem with this cover. I live in Columbus ,OH. We have 5.5 " of snow on it right now . Wind chill factor is 7*,so I haven't been out much.

Yes. Been thru some really bad storms with high winds and some large hail, not a sign of any damage.

The cover actually covers the table and chairs and is very thick so I believe it would definitely cover it from hail. This is a great cover and very sturdy plus it velcros onto the legs for additional support from the wind. Hope this helps. Thank you.
