I park my car outside and in sun. I cover my car with the dealer provided car cover which is made of parachute material. I would like to know if the parachute material car covers block UV rays. If so, to what extent they provide protection from UV rays? This would help me understand to what extent it would provide protection to my car paint from fading.
Car - Hyundai Venue.
Car Cover - From car dealer, parachute material.
You will need the details of the material which you have. We don't have that material. Once you check the detail for that sheet then you will know how the material behaves in UV and what protection it provides.
Most new cars now have sufficient UV protection anyway built into the paint system applied to the car. It is mostly older cars that suffer from UV degradation.
