Car covers and blankets are accessories used to protect your car from external elements such as dust, rain, sun, snow, or damage caused by accidental scratches. They are particularly useful for those who leave their car outside, perhaps in an uncovered parking lot, or during extended periods of non-use.
Here is a more detailed description:
Car Covers :
They are made of waterproof or water-resistant materials, such as polyester or synthetic materials, to protect the car from moisture.
They also offer UV protection, preventing the sun from damaging your car's paint and preventing the cabin from overheating.
They can be soft on the inside so as not to scratch the bodywork, but durable enough on the outside to protect against any impacts or physical damage.
There are specific covers for each type of vehicle (sedans, SUVs, vans), so fit is an important feature.
Some covers are breathable, which prevents condensation from forming under the cover, reducing the risk of corrosion.
Car Covers :
They are often thicker than tarps and can be used both for long-term protection and for short periods of stay.
They can be made of soft fabrics, such as wool or polyester, and are best suited to protecting the car during the winter months, when it is exposed to snow or ice.
Some car covers feature a padded underside for added protection against accidental bumps and can also be used to protect your car during transport or maintenance.
Overall, both accessories are easy to apply and remove, and offer effective protection, increasing the lifespan and keeping the car clean and in good condition.
