I have 2 covers I keep on the car in the garage, but I visit a friend at the beach and don't have much choice other than to park under a tree. I want to get a relatively lightweight but good quality cover for outdoors, sun and sometimes rain, but only used a few weekends a year.

Suggestions? Which brand is best? Which is easiest on the paint? I know a dirty car = scratches, so I always quick detail before putting it under a cover.

Noahs work pretty well for me. Waterproof, breathable and can fit in the trunk.

Just purchased Covercraft Noah. Main intent is for use in the garage, but I wanted an all rounder too. Nice custom fit, and not too tight. Soft internal material, breathes, and not too bulky. Follow the instructions and easy to put on and off.

CoverKing Stormproof. Material is lightweight, strong, waterproof, available in a variety of colors. Excellent for indoors or outdoors. Custom made for each car. Fits like a glove. Not cheap but worth every penny.

What is your 'quick detail' routine?

How about suggestions for a cheap, lightweight garage only cover.

This cover will be kept at a friend's beach house, so bulk is a factor. How bulky are the Noah covers all rolled up? I want the fleece or super soft lining, but roll up pretty tight. Just to prevent tree droppings, really.

I recommend this car cover:

That is an indoor car cover, the OP is looking for a outdoor cover.

Noah is about the size of a Qualifill Sleeping Bag (not a down sleeping bag that compresses) rolled up. Hope that comparison helps - oh, or about 1/3 of the luggage compartment under the front lid!

Good comparison, thx.

CoverKing Stormproof folds up small enough that you could store it in a standard pillowcase. Keep in mind that a fleece-lined cover collects dust and grit even if you detail the car before putting it on.

I have that exact cover. I love it but it isn't water proof.
