[QUOTE="smurfslayer, post: 1773453, member: 21926"] I had decent cover for my Lightning, which I didn’t drive every day for a stretch. The issue is that once the truck is sufficiently pollenated or dirty, covering it again both slightly scuffs the clear and gets the inside of the cover dirty. Pollen will F*** up your clear coat, if you don’t believe me, grab a rag and rub the pollen off in a small area. repeat 2 or 3 times and you’ll start to notice. A good cover will keep surface contaminants off the paint, for sure. But not off of you, when you take the filthy cover off ! So, what I’d do is wash first, cover, drive and assess. Most times I ended up not re-covering until I washed again. It can also help in dust storms, created by your neighbor when they mow. Not sure how much of a thing that is but I’m a few hours south and we’re in a months long drought. I have to close up the house when I mow to minimize the dust coating. [/QUOTE]
