ClickitCoverit Car Covers

Have you been looking for a car cover but don’t know which cover to buy, I hope this article will help you make that decision. When you are in the market for a cover you will find there are many covers to choose from. A lot of that decision will be based on your location i.e. where the cover will be used and warranty and retailer information. The first thing we will talk about is the location that you will be using this cover. By location I mean are you in the Northern part of the USA or Canada? Or are you located on the East coast, West coast, Midwest, Southern states etc. Each one of these locations have their own weather. This should influence your decision on which cover you will need. The cold and snowy states will warrant a waterproof cover that will stand up to snow, ice, rain as well as the sun. There are the three layer and four layer covers that will handle these conditions. Next where the cover will be used, such as a garage or outside in the weather. If you will be covering a vehicle indoors like a garage, carport or storage building you will need a cover that will block dust and bird droppings also bumps and scratches. They make these covers in single layer and double layer. The single layer cover will stop dust and protect you vehicle if you are storing it. The double layer cover goes one step further by not only stopping dust but also stopping bird droppings from getting thought to your vehicles finish and it will also help protect against bumps and scratches from activity around your vehicle. These two layer covers are great for in the garage or under a carport. they are water resistant and UV treated to help with some exposure to the weather such as what may occur under a carport but are not recommended for outdoor use. Then there are the three and four layer covers made to handle all the conditions from inside storage to full time outdoor use. The three layer cover has a durable 1st layer with a breathable 2nd layer and a protective 3rd layer, all three of these layers make a waterproof and UV protective cover that will stand up to Winter, Spring, Summer, Fall and all your inside and outside storage needs. The four layer covers have all that the three layer cover has and then one more layer of fleece on the inside to protect your clear coat finish, gretat for your newer and show cars. I know when you are looking for a cover you will see many different types of names for these covers, but in the long run they all have either one to four layers of protection. So now that you know which cover you need the next thing to talk about is warranties. Covers come with one to five years of protection but they have limited liability. Which means you need to read the warranty and find out what it covers, most warranties cover just the normal manufacturer defects, some cover more. So as a consumer you have to read to make sure your cover will be replaced if something goes wrong. The last thing to talk about is the retailer, there are good retailers and bad, some of them offer a great return policy and even free shipping. There are ways to check on the retailer you want to use, I think that any good retailer should belong to the Better Business Bureau. The BBB has a very good reputation of keeping retailers honest. Check for the BBB link on the web site that you are thinking of using, you can check if there has been any complaints. You can also check the web to see if there has been any complaints about the retailer. Any reputable retailer should have a customer service number you can call to see if they really stand behind what they advertise. With this information in hand you should now be able to make a good choice in vehicle covers as well as RV, truck, van, boat, ATV, golf cart and any other covers you what to buy.

Hi everybody this blog has been about sharing information on covers, from the simple car cover to the large RV covers. And it’s that time of year to stop and thank all the people that have helped our websites and blogs do so well. From all of us at D. R. Global Marketing thank you and have a wonderful Christmas and a very Happy New Year. Now that we have said our thank you we need to carry on with the cover information highway. This time of year there are more then a few good reasons to purchase a cover for your vehicles and RVs. Just look outside and what do you see? If you are in the Eastern part of this country you probably see snow and ice. If your from the Midwest you will be looking at either snow or rainy conditions, then there is the Southwest part of this great country and yes the sun is still shining bright there. If you are from this part of the country count yourself as one of the lucky ones. There are covers for both vehicles and RVs that are made just for the intense sun UV rays. These covers are called the Tyvek cover it uses a material made by Dupont. This material will stand up to the sun much better than any other cover material in the Southern part of our country. It is white to reflect the sun and help keep your vehicle or RV cool on the inside. The Tyvek cover is a single layer cover that provides both waterproofing and UV protection. I recommend this cover to all our customers that live in the Southwest and any place that needs that extra protection from the sun. Now for the customers that live in the Northwest, Midwest or East and far North. There are covers made for you in mind. First the 3 layer waterproof cover will provide great protection from snow, ice, rain, damp conditions and long periods of seasonal storage. This cover is made with three layers the first layer is made of a durable material the middle layer is a waterproof but breathable material and the third layer is a protective material. This cover is an excellent cover for the cooler and wet parts of this country and others. Then there’s the four layer covers they have all the properties that a three layer cover has plus a fourth inside layer of fleece, this fleece will protect your clear coat finish on your show cars, brand new vehicles and any type of car, truck ,SUV, van or station wagon you want to give that little extra love to.
Well I think there are many good reasons to cover your vehicles both in the Winter months and Summer months and that is to protect your investment. At the price we are paying for our vehicles and RVs you need to protect them from the normal day to day nicks and scratches as well as environmental exposure from acid rain to bird droppings that can fade your paints finish.

Happy Holidays to all. Car covers, RV covers, Golf Cart covers and more make for a great gift during the holiday season. You be pleasantly surprised this year when you friends and loved ones open there gifts and are very happy with what you got them. There are a couple of reasons why covers make a great gifts. First is pretty obvious, they are used to protect one of your biggest investments, your vehicles. Next is the convenience of having a cover to protect your vehicle. Not having to wash your vehicle as much, not having to scrape your windows in winter, keeping the vehicle finish looking like new. These are just some of the conveniences that a vehicle cover will bring. Then there is the protection factor, stopping all those scratches from ruining your paint job. The next time you are parked under a tree you won’t have all that tree sap and bird droppings on your vehicle. The rain now a days has a lot of harsh chemicals in it that can damage your vehicles finish. These are some of the reasons you should get a vehicle cover for a holiday gift.
There are a lot of RVs that sit in storage lots most of the year. When I drive by these RV storage lots I often wonder why only a few have covers on them. I think it can’t be the cost of a cover, if you spend $10,000.00 to $500,000.00 on an RV how can you not spend $200.00 to $500.00 on a cover that will help keep your RV value. RV covers not only protect the exterior they also protect your interior from the suns UV rays that fade your drapes and carpet, also the heat that builds up in the interior can damage just about everything inside. This is the year to buy an RV cover for your friends and family. They will thank you for thinking of them and maybe you will get invited on there next trip in the summer.

I really think you can’t go wrong in buying a cover as a gift, all my friends and family have some kind of vehicle they could use a cover for. At this time of year it’s always hard to think of a gift that somebody doesn’t already have. Make it a vehicle cover and you will make somebody happy for the holidays.

Have A Happy Holidays

Well here we go again, it won’t be long before the snow will be falling and the cold and wet winter will be here for the next several months. There is one thing that I really hate is to have to scrape my vehicle windows in the morning before I go to work. There is a way around doing that and that is to have a vehicle cover. When you have a cover on your car, truck, SUV or other vehicle you won’t have to spend that time scraping or brushing the snow and ice from your windows. That alone will give you another 15 to 30 minutes to enjoy the warm comfort of your house or apartment, and to have another cup of coffee, tea or hot chocolate before heading off to work.

It is also that time of year to winterize your RV’s before the temperatures get below freezing. Make sure you drain you water storage tanks and get antifreeze pumped through all of your supply lines. The other day a friend told me about a mistake he made when winterizing his RV this year. He did all the things you should do and thought he was ready to cover his RV for the season. Turned off the appliances and shut down the propane tanks so everything was off. After putting his RV cover on he checked it the next week to make sure all was OK. As he walked around his RV he noticed a hole in the cover and it looked like a burn hole. It took him some time to think how that could have happened when everything was turned off. Well the one thing he forgot was the two way switch on his hot water tank, even though the propane was off the electric was still on and the heating element came on in the hot water tank and got hot enough to burn the cover. So he asked me to bring this to peoples attention so maybe they wouldn’t make the same mistake.

So one thing you can be sure of is that winter is close by and now is the time to get ready for the cold wet days ahead. So get your RV’s ready and think about that cover for your vehicles before you have to scrape those windows this year.

Well that’s it for this week if you have any questions about vehicle covers please visit our web site at www.clickitcoverit.com

It’s that time of year again for storing your RVs and other vehicles for the winter months. It is very important to prepare your RV and recreational vehicles for the cold and wet months ahead. If you live in the Southern states just storing in the off months that you don’t use them. In the Northern states you need to prepare your RV for the freezing temperatures and the wet snow and ice. The most important thing is draining your water tanks and using an antifreeze in your line to prevent them from breaking. Then there is the cover for your RVs and other recreational vehicles. Choosing the right cover can make a big difference in how your RV will stand up to the snow and ice. There are many types of RV covers out there, some are for the intense sun and other are for the wet and snow of winter. When you are looking for a cover for your RV I think that the Internet is the best source for information and selection of RV covers. Some of the things you want to do when looking for your RV cover is check the size of your RV. Measure for the bumper to the rear bumper to see exactly how long your RV is, the manufacture my say that your RV is a 26′ travel trailer but when you measure it you find that it is 26’6″ long and that can make a difference in picking the right size RV cover. Next check the width and height. Some of the new RVs are taller then said to be and you want to check this by measuring from the top edge to the bottom of the trailer edge. The covers come with room for your AC and racks on top so don’t worry about that. the width has also changed over the years so you may find your trailer is wider and you need to check this when you are ordering the cover. If the cover measurements are not on the web site then give them a call and they will help you get the right size cover for your RV.

There are a couple of different types of materials to choose from in RV covers. The Tyvek cover works well in the southern states as it reflects the UV rays and helps to cool the interior temps. There are a couple of draw backs with this cover, when installing and removal you may rip this cover it is a single layer cover and can rip petty easily. I prefer the polypropylene woven fabrics that come in two or three layers. This material will breath and not allow condensation to build under the cover. The Recreational vehicle covers have been made for years now and they have a lot of nice features. Like venting at the top to help keep moisture out and dryness in. Zippered panels allow complete access to the door, rear and sides. Adjustable front and rear tension panels provide a custom-like fit and many more.

So this year when getting your RV ready for storage take the time to invest in a cover and you will be glad you did. When next spring comes around and you uncover you RV you will see how much the cover has done to protect your investment. Keeping it cleaner and also protecting your exterior finish from oxidation. It will also protect your interior from the suns UV rays that can damage things like your drapes, counter tops, rugs and any plastic fixtures. Also help to keep the temperatures down on the inside of your RV.

I find fall the best time of the year, the temps start to cool and the sun is a lot less intense. The trees start to change colors and the lawn doesn’t need to be mowed as much. The kids are back in school and it gives me time to work on things around the house with less distractions.

Your RV should have antifreeze in the lines and you should check all your service items before storage. Your other vehicles won’t need as much work to store. Your cars and trucks that you drive every day could us a cover also to protect them from the rain, ice and snow.

There you will find all the information and selection of covers for all of your vehicle choices.

Now that summer is over you should start thinking about an RV cover for your travel trailer, 5th Wheel, Class A, Class B, Toy hauler or any other RV vehicles you might have. You have spent this year enjoying your RVs and now that summer is over it’s time to get them ready to store for the winter season. There are several things that need to be done before the cold weather gets here. The first thing to do is drain all the water from your storage tanks, heater and water lines. Now fill it back up with an RV antifreeze that you can get at any RV supply store. Then go through all your storage and remove anything that can freeze or be damaged by the cold weather. Once that is done, give it a good cleaning inside and out so it will be ready for the next time you take it out. Before you store it go down the service list and check all the items that need to be serviced. Now the last thing to do is park it and install the Wheel Covers and RV Cover.

There is a very good reason to cover your RV, the sun, rain and wind can damage not only the outside but the interior also. The suns UV rays can damage all the plastic and rubber on your RV exterior, the sun can also damage the inside like the curtains, counter tops, rugs and anything else that high heat can effect. Having a cover on your RV will stop the suns UV rays from damaging your RV finish, without a cover your exterior paint, plastic and rubber will start to oxidize from the sun speeding up it’s destruction. RV covers also cut down on heat build up inside your RV. And a good set of RV wheel covers will keep your tires from cracking and drying out in the sun which consequently will speed up the need for replacement.

There are many RV cover manufacturers like Gold Line, Expedition, Adco, Aqua Shed, Traveler, Tyvek just to mention a few, so picking the right cover can be confusing sometimes. If you do your homework and go to each manufacturers website you can compare the covers and warranties, then start looking for the best price. Some sites may have free shipping which will get you the cover you want for less and will be happy with for years to come. Doing a little work to find the right cover for your RV will pay for itself in the long run. RV covers will keep your RVs looking and lasting a lot longer. Having a cover on your RV shows that you are a person that cares about your RV, not to mention protecting your investment.

There has always been a argument about whether or not the custom car cover a better buy than a semi custom car cover. Well hopefully today we will get to the bottom of this subject. There are many vehicle cover manufactures making custom covers today. They make them custom to your year, make and model of your vehicle or you can ask for custom covers made to your dimensions. This process ends up with a cover that fits your vehicle form and also has mirror pockets. These covers come in a wide variety of colors and materials that can have your custom logo also. The one thing that is a given is you will pay top dollar for these covers. There are pluses to having a custom cover made for you like the fit, these covers will fit to the form of your vehicle this does cut down on rubbing your finish in the weather on windy or stormy days. Having mirror pockets also keeps the cover form fitted to your vehicle. Then there is color and material choices. The color choice is important as to the sun’s rays being reflected or absorbed. This is the UV factor when you have a light color the UV rays will be reflected away from the cover and it will last longer and keep it cooler in the hot climates. When you choose a dark color the sun’s rays will be absorbed and the UV ray’s will break down the material quicker and the vehicle will collect the heat in hot weather. Some of the negatives are the cost, the custom cover will cost you as much as three times as a semi custom cover. The custom cover is a tight fitting cover and when it comes to putting it on and off you will spend a lot more time doing this and those mirror pockets can be a pain in the butt. When you are ordering a custom cover the sales person or web site will try to sell you as much extras as they can this will drive the price up and even if money is no option you still will feel this in your pocket book. There are many options to choose from like logos, storage bags, stitching color, inserts, multiple color covers, treatments like UV or Waterproofing. All these extras will cost more and more. So buyer beware you can spend a lot of money on a custom cover that has warranties the same as semi covers or even shorter.

The semi custom covers, this won’t take long because they are made with the customer in mind. When you are looking for a semi custom cover the manufacturer has made them easy to buy. The covers are made to fit more then one vehicle and with out a lot of fancy stuff to think about. They come in only a few colors to choose from and they come with their own storage bag. They have a good choice of materials to choose from. The covers come with water and UV treatments at no extra cost. The cost is right on the mark. When you are looking for one of the semi custom covers the best place to get one is on the Internet. There are many great sites to choose from and they offer good information and e-mail or phone help if you need it. It is easy to find your cover for your vehicle as most of the sites have a sizing system where you simply input your year, make, and model and a selection of covers in different color and material are there to choose from. If the site doesn’t have this system they will have a sizing chart you can look up your vehicle on or all you need to do is measure the length of your vehicle and look for that cover size on the site. If you still need help just call or e-mail them and they will be happy to help. All the semi covers come with elastic on the front and back hem to adjust to a good fit for your vehicle, and they come with tie down grommets to us with a cable lock for security or just to help keep it snug and prevent the wind from getting under the cover causing billowing or loss of cover. When it comes to putting the cover on and off not being as much of a tight fit will make it a lot quicker and your won’t have to fight with the mirror pockets.

There are two different types or waterproof covers, first there is the water resistant cover, this cover isn’t waterproof but it will help stop some of the water from getting underneath the cover and still will breath to help dry out after the storm. The true waterproof cover is 100% waterproof meaning that no water can get under the cover, but you will see condensation under it so don’t think it is leaking because it’s not. It also can breath and will dry out after just a little time. I get this question a lot about waterproof covers and they always think it’s leaking, so then I have to explain about the condensation factor. These water resistant and waterproof covers are also mildew and mold resistant and UV treated to stand up in all kinds of weather. When your cover gets wet you should try to dry it out before you fold it up or stuff it in the storage bag, this will help it to last longer and to maintain the waterproof treatment as well as the mold and UV treatment. We suggest if you can to leave the cover on the car until it is dry or if you must take it off wet, to lay it out unfolded so it can dry before storing it away.

I hope this information has been helpful in answering some of your questions and explaining some proper care of your covers. If you would like more information about vehicle covers and accessories please visit us at http://www.clickitcoverit.com
