Dave that will work too, but I bet you will dent the ends of your car as it
spins around on that turn table thing.

I knew I could count on you! You know, I was thinking I could use pallet
shrink-wrap. Two minutes & I could wrap the entire car.

Indy Dave,

What about using something like Scotchgard on it?

Send the rain a bit north and east please.

I took the pcar to a show yesterday. A 20 minute pop-up rainstorm came up. I
thought, no problem I have my "BLOCK_IT"R Evolution Fabric, by Kimberly
Clark, TechnalonR cover from CoverCraft ($175.00). I waited nearly a year
for this opportunity! I watched people running by the hundreds to roll up
windows and close convertible tops. I don't need to close my windows or
worry about my car getting wet, right, WRONG!

 

After the rain, my car was soaked, as wet as the guy next to me without the
high tech cover. Aggravating and embarrassing to say the least. The only
reason I bought the cover was for this type of situation. The high tech
instruction sheet says ".short dense fibers that act as moisture barrier to
repel water yet allow the passage of air." It goes on to say "Technalon
covers will keep the vehicle dry except in a heavy rainstorm or prolonged
exposure to steady damp conditions such as accumulated snowfall." I
understand NOW it will protect the vehicle from Fog! 

 

Covering the car with paper napkins would have been just as effective and a
pack of 500 would have taken less room in the front trunk.

 

Is there a cover (reasonable cost) that will shield the car from rain? I am
not concerned about breathable fabric. The cover would only be on the car to
protect it from rain and then removed.

 

Thanks

Indy Dave
