The limited parking area indoors often forces you to park your beloved car in the outdoor parking area. Parking outdoors means that your beloved car will be exposed to direct sunlight. To cover the entire body of the car, you certainly need a car cover. Generally, car covers are made from waterproof fabric. Car covers have two different sides, namely the outer side and the inner side. Both have different functions.

Functions of a Car Cover

The outer side of the car cover serves as a sunblock. Exposure to sunlight contains harmful ultraviolet rays. These ultraviolet rays will gradually damage the car's paint layer. Therefore, the outer side of the car cover is necessary to keep your car's paint layer durable.

Meanwhile, the inner side of the car cover has a soft appearance that prevents the car body from getting scratched when you wrap the car. Usually, the inner side of the car cover is dark in color. This is certainly not without purpose. The inner side of the car cover is designed in dark colors to provide a cool atmosphere inside the car.

Tips for Choosing a Car Cover

First, choose an outer car cover that is bright in color. Brighter colors are believed to repel heat better than darker colors. Second, it should cover the entire car, including all four tires. Because tires that are continuously exposed to sunlight can damage the rubber quality, my friend. Tires will become hard due to loss of flexibility. If this continues, your car tires may burst at an unpredictable time. Third, it should be waterproof. Also, pay attention to the seams, ensuring that the seams are in good condition.

If you find your car cover wet after rain, it means you need to replace it with a new one. A wet car cover after rain indicates that the cover is already leaking and not waterproof.

Rainwater contains acidic substances. Acidic substances can erode and gradually damage the car's paint layer. Therefore, when it rains, be sure to wash your car, my friend. Actually, car covers can be used not only when your car is parked outdoors, my friend. Using a car cover when parked indoors will also protect your car from possible scratches.

For example, some people experience parking difficulties that cause the car to bump and create scratches on your beloved car. You wouldn't want your car to get scratched because of that, right, my friend? So, always use a car cover even if you park indoors, okay, my friend? Even if you are the type of car user who rarely uses your car and always covers it with a car cover, it is recommended to occasionally remove it.

A car cover used for a long time will create moisture on the car's paint layer. If this continues, mold will grow on your car's paint. This will also affect the appearance of the paint, making it dull and even fade.

So, now you know the importance of a car cover? So, from now on, don't be lazy to put on the car cover, okay, my friend.
