WATER PERMEATION: MOST COVERS NEED CONSISTENT WATERPROOFING MAINTENANCE, IF NOT UPKEPT IT WILL RESULT IN WATER PASSING THROUGH THE MATERIAL

COULD YOU STORE YOUR MACHINE & FEEL SAFE KNOWING THIS?
With so many factors to consider, each one having it’s own associated costs & risks, how are your protecting & preserving the investment that you have into your machine?

YOUR OPTIONS | THE MANY WAYS TO PROTECT YOUR MACHINES

HOW CAN YOU PROTECT & PRESERVE YOUR INVESTMENT?

TARPS OR FITTED SHEETS

Tarps or sheets can be used as a cheaper alternative to indoor storage. They can protect the vehicle from some weather conditions and debris, but they are not as effective as a tailored cover.

Tarps and sheets can also trap moisture, allow debris in and move in light to moderate winds, degrading quickly & leading to rust and other damage over time.

A STANDARD COVER

A cheap protective cover is a step up from a tarp or sheet, but it still may not provide adequate protection. These covers are typically made from lightweight materials and may not be durable enough to withstand all weather conditions.

They may also fit poorly, allowing abrasion damage as well as debris and moisture to get inside.

INDOOR STORAGE

Indoor storage is the ideal environment for storing vehicles, as it provides the most protection against the elements. Benefits include protection from weather conditions, pests, and theft.

However, the cost or availability of indoor storage can be prohibitive, and it may not be a feasible option for everyone.

A CUSTOM FIT COVER

A tailored custom cover is the most effective option for protecting a vehicle in storage. These covers are designed to fit specific makes and models, providing a snug and secure fit that keeps out moisture and debris.

They are typically made from high-quality materials that provide superior protection against the elements.

However, tailored covers can be expensive and may not be within everyone's budget.
