Considering a cover for our RV. CW has one on sale with a 2yr warranty for same price as one from Carcover universe called Platinum Gurard cover with a 6 yr warranty. Seems like a no brainer but has any one used the Carcover universe cover?
two travelers,
The use of a car-type-cover is admirable thought. It has at least two benefits. First, it keeps the sun and all the elements off. Second, it keeps most of the dirt/debris off.
But, the pitfalls of those type covers in most opinions, waaaaaay out weighs the bennies. First, it's one serious pain in the arce to install, based the immense size of it and the logistics of what kind of action is needed to apply it.
Second, while it does keep the dirt/debris off, where do you think that dirt/debris is now settling? It's now residing ON that cover.
And when that happens, about 99% of those who use those covers,( the very few that do) will ROLL and fold that cover up, when removing it, encapsulating all that dirt/debris.
But, when it comes time to re-apply it, guess what you're doing with all that couped up dirt/debris? Yep, you're un-folding/rolling it right onto the surface of your possibly just cleaned RV. So, now you've trapped dirt/dust/debris in between the cover and the RV.
So, not only is it a serious pain to install those, unless some pain in the a$$ procedures are used when removing it, you'll quite possibly be doing more damage to your RVs surface when re-installing it. Good luck.
