The only time that you are going to use a cover is when the paint is SPOTLESS. That means, right after you wash it. If you plan to drive it and then cover it up, you may as well just not cover it because covering a dirty or dusty car is worse than having a bird crap on it. That dust under the cover is like 4000 grit sand paper.

folding dirty car covers is a royal pita.

Copy. Thanks for the help, I really appreciate it. I am trying to learn as this is my first sports car. I really care for it and want to protect it and I've only driven rock crawlers thus far. So the idea of car covers and protecting the paint are new to me. In going to have to Google what a spary sealent even is. I am trying to learn.

Thank you for the clarification.
