I haven't bought a car cover in a long while. I'm looking to buy one for my temporarily retired commuter car. My wife and I are pulling my commuter car off insurance to save $1000+ year on car insurance.
Browsing what's popular, it seems a lot of the mid-tier car covers are made of something called Polypropylene. It looks quite a bit different from the breathable car covers I bought over a decade ago. This stuff looks like thin tarp material. I can't find much information about this stuff online. Does anyone know if this stuff is breathable? I don't want to spend 400+ for my 20 year old beater car. CarCover.com has a $200 polypropylene car cover I'm interested in. It's their platinum line and they say it's made of polypropylene.
There's not a lot of detailed discussion, material information, or long term review of these car covers. Are they more damage than good? Keep in mind this car will be sitting outside for probably the next 6 months under a tree. That's why I want to buy a car cover, to keep the sap off and bird droppings. Would a $200 car cover cause more damage than good?
Appreciate the input. Thanks.
