Custom Car Cover Materials

Material Properties Legend
Coverking has a wide selection of materials, each selected to meet a particular cover need and budget. Below are the 6 criteria used for Custom Car Cover Materials, and an explanation of each.
	Water Resistance is a relative grade of how much water will penetrate the fabric. A "5" signifies the most water resistant material. WATERPROOF materials will not breathe, trapping moisture. All Coverking materials are water resistant, not waterproof.			The Sun's UV Rays damage a vehicle's interior, finish, and also the car cover material. Materials with a "5" rating are most likely not to degrade under extreme sun conditions.
	Breathability describes how much moisture vapor trapped under the vehicle can escape through the cover. If a material is not breathable, it will trap moisture and cause rust. A "5" signifies the most breathable material.			Natural and Man-Made Hazards, such as bird droppings, tree droppings and industrial fall out are very acidic, and can eat through a car's finish. A score of "5" identifies the material most resistant to these dangerous chemicals.
	Compactness measures how easily the material is to pack, and how small the final packed cover is. A score of "5" identifies the most compact cover. This is an important attribute if you will use your cover often.			All Coverking materials are designed not to scratch a vehicle's finish (assuming the vehicle is clean when the cover is installed. However, some materials are softer than others. A "5" rating is the softest.

Stretch Satin™ Custom Car Cover
	Satin Stretch is an indoor Custom Car Cover fabric. It will fade if exposed to extended sun, and is not water resistant. Satin Stretch is the SOFTEST fabric available, and has Lycra yarns to hug every contour of a vehicle. Blind stitching results in invisible seams - this is a SEXY car cover!

Triguard™
	A 3 layer Custom Car Cover material suited for light weather conditions (perfect for occasional use or vehicles stored under a carport). Triguard is fairly soft and very compact. Do not use Triguard in harsh weather or sun. Triguard is also not suited in areas with industrial fall out (acid rain). Click here for more detailed information.

Coverbond 4™
	4 layers make Coverbond 4 a very thick and bulky Custom Car Cover. It is not suggested for daily users, or for people with large SUVs. However, the extra bulk helps to guard against minor nicks and dings, and even helps in light hail. Coverbond 4 is suggested for moderate weather or indoor use.

Mosom™
	A 3 layer Custom Car Cover fabric which is similar to Triguard, but with an advanced micro-porus film middle layer. The film aids in preventing water penetration, while allowing vapor to escape. Mosom is a good general use cover. If the vehicle is exposed to significant sun, we suggest Silverguard or Stormproof. Click here for more detailed information.

Silverguard™
	Similar in properties to Mosom, but with more sun resistance and slightly less breathability. Silverguard is a 300 denier polyester woven Custom Car Cover fabric with a unique encapsulative coating. It is perfect for general use, even in very sunny climates. The silver coating helps to reflect sunlight. Click here for more detailed information.

Stormshield
	Made by Guilford Mills, Stormshield is a unique polyester knitted Custom Car Cover fabric with a "peach fizz" lining. The lining adds extra softness and thickness. Stormshield is perfect for virtually all weather conditions. Stormshield is available in black, gray, blue, red, yellow and tan. In addition, two tone combinations are available with black sides and a color center.

Stormproof™

Coverking was overwhelmed after receiving test results of our latest design - Stormproof. The culmination of over a decade of material engineering, it has only recently been possible to manufacture the microscopic yarns which go into this advanced micro-fiber Custom Car Cover material. Only one textile mill in the world was able to meet Coverking's specifications - and although challenged by Coverking's design, the results are truly a triumph for car cover users! Stormproof is UNCOATED and UNTREATED this means that even after months or years of use, it will have the same properties! Stormproof feels more like an expensive golf jacket, yet is tested to be the MOST WATER RESISTANT and (because there are no coatings) the MOST BREATHABLE. You can't go wrong with Stormproof - available in gray, black, red, wine, and two tone combinations with black sides. Click here for more detailed information on Stormproof™.
