Cats and Cars


Its starting to get cold out there at night and as a result, cats are on the prowl looking for nice warm cars to perch on. So your car is a potential victim of scratching and clawing, especially if its a soft top. First thing you will know about it is when thin swirl like scratches appear on the bonnet or roof or bumper. Cats will dig their claws into your car to prevent sliding off. The solution is to use a Voyager Car Cover from us here at CoverYourCar

Why? Because...

a) Cats hate the material and tend to avoid it, thus staying away.
b) The Material is triple layer cross weave type and wont puncture.
c) Cats find it difficult to get their claws through the material.

So protect your car from cats today with a Voyager Car Cover from us here at www.coveryourcar.co.uk

Towels and Blankets? NO NO NO!

Had a call today from a customer who apparently had been told by one of the major high street auto retailers to put blankets or even towels on his car before he fitted the cover they sold to stop the cover scratching his car or damaging his soft top. This is wrong in so many ways...

a) If the cover marks the car its obviously a poor fitting cover ( general fit as per most general motor stores ) or its a poor quality with poor quality inner.

b) Anything like this placed on the car under a car cover will become damp and hold moisture against the paint which is not good for your car.

Either way this is bad advise and what you can expect from retailers who dont know anything about car covers, other than they hope to cover their backs because they have been told to do so by "the management". Please people, spend some decent money, buy a decent cover and dont listen to any bull.

Garages and Car Covers

Chances are if you store your car in a garage the main problem you have is static air and damp rising from the floor. If you use an indoor car cover then this will keep the dust and dirt off it and protect it from little accidental prangs and scratches while brushing past it. The car cover must be breathable as damp that rises from the floor must be able to escape from underneith the car cover.

We have found the best solutions are to seal the floor with a concrete paint and or fit a plastic membrane. This can be bought from any hardware store. Look for the type that goes under laminate flooring as this is quite thick and will stand the test of time.

This will help to keep the damp out and your car pristine.

Sierra RS Cosworth Mk1 Car Cover

After much trial and effort we now have a fitted pattern for the Sierra RS Cosworth Mk1, the one with the huge rear spoiler. Available in 4 Layer Stormforce for outdoor use or Sahara for indoor use, both available with security alarm add on.. a must for this type of car. The rear spoiler will always cause a problem with any outdoor cover as water will pool in the gap between the rear windscreen and spoiler edge putting stress on the material. We have found the best solution is to place a curved object ( non scratch ) over the rear spoiler before fitting cover, that way the water will just run off it.
