Use a soft-bristle brush or a damp cloth to remove large particles of dust from the surface, preventing material scratches during scrubbing.
For stubborn stains (such as tar), use a neutral cleaning agent or a specialized stain remover. Wipe and rinse quickly while the surface is wet to avoid corroding the coating.
Soaking and Scrubbing
Immerse the car cover in a mixture of warm water and neutral laundry detergent for 15-20 minutes to dissolve stains.
Focus on scrubbing the edges and stained areas. For Oxford cloth covers, avoid prolonged soaking; for PEVA covers, avoid high temperatures.
Rinsing and Drying
Rinse thoroughly until no cleaning agent residue remains. Hang the cover in a well-ventilated area to air-dry in the shade—direct sunlight can cause material aging.
II. Maintenance and Storage Tips
Regular Cleaning
Clean the car cover at least once a month. Promptly clean it after acid rain or sandstorm weather.
For aluminum film car covers, avoid folding to prevent creases; for PEVA covers, keep them away from sharp objects.
Proper Storage
After drying, fold the cover and store it in a well-ventilated place to prevent moisture and mildew.
When not in use for a long time, check for damage and repair or replace the cover in a timely manner.
III. Precautions
Material Differences: TPU car covers require specialized cleaning agents; organic solvents are prohibited for PVC covers.
Protection Balance: Excessive use of a car cover may affect the breathability of the car paint. It is recommended to use it flexibly according to the environment.
By following the above methods, the service life of the car cover can be extended by 2-3 years, and its protective effect can be maintained.
