Re: To cover or NOT to cover... That is the question!

Yes same here. I too live in a VERY humid area and have decided to go coverless.
My reasoning was : better a bit of dust on the finish than trapping the humidity and ending up with a rusty finish. In a garage you need all the ventilation you can get. So here’s what I’ve done to fight off that humidity:
1) run a dehumidifier 24/7 and program it so that the highest level is 50%
2) install a 52” ceiling fan
3) also run a powerful semi-commercial fan at floor level when it GETS VERY humid. This shoots under and around the lower parts of the car and wheel wells
4) since I live in a colder climate zone, I’ve installed a wall heater too
5) also helps to get the air circulation going inside the car too by leaving the windows slightly down
