Re: [Chevelle-list] nylon car cover OK?
Jim, I started using a nylon cover on the Chevelle when I put it in storage at my parents place(heated). My biggest reason is the occasional use as a table...but more importantly was the time my dad remodeled a couple rooms and sprayed the baseboard heaters in the garagewhite overspray on a black car...nuff said...plenty of elbow grease to fix that Walt http://www.personal.kent.edu/~wbainey/CHEVELLE.htm -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of J.

My car is always in the garage, but I thought it might be nice to still have a cover over, as folks going through my garage always find a way to rub up against the car or want to set things temporarily on top of it. Does anyone have one of these covers, and if so, has it been kind to your car's finish? Again the car sits in the garage, so it's more for protection from the HUMAN element rather than the weather..

Re: [Chevelle-list] nylon car cover OK?
Thanks for the info Walt- And it didn't have any effect on the finish of the car? I just wanted to make sure I did my due diligence before throwing this thing over my car and having it get all scratched up. Again, it was a gift- so if people don't recommend this type of cover, please tell me now.. I can always use it over another car I have that's in primer! 8^] Thanks, Jim --- BAINEY, WALT [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Jim, I started using a nylon cover on the Chevelle when I put it in storage at my parents place(heated).

Re: [Chevelle-list] nylon car cover OK?
Jim, If the car were outdoors in the wind..I would say no...but as far as a car sitting in a garage..no problems at all. I've been using it for 5-6 yrs. It doesn't offer any protection if folks are dropping items on the car or running into the side. I usually leave a couple of my car wash towels on the trunk of the car...that it where folks place items as they take off their shoes.

Re: [Chevelle-list] nylon car cover OK?
Jim - I personally use a "Wolf" cover on my corvette - I've used it for 5 yrs with no problems - ALthough my car is also garaged, I feel that the heavier cover offers a little more protection - Most importantly the cover breathes - From:"J.
