Indoor mainly car cover Block-it 200

I would like to get a reasonably priced car cover for putting my MG away for the winter. It would also be nice to have for overnight travel to a show when rain is called for.

THe Block-it 200 fabric looks like it might fit the bill. Anyone here try it?

I'm more familiar with the old names. Evolution, NOAH, and Dustop.

Evolution is 4 layers thick, so it's bulky. But it offers the bet in ding resistance and storm protection.

NOAH offers similar protection, except it's 3 layers, so ding protection isn't quite as good.

Dustop is an indoor only material. It blocks 300% dust than the old standard - flannel lined cotton.

I spent a weekend with a Kimberly Clark (the material maker) research scientist back in Spring, and he filled me in on it.

Personally, I own Evolution and Dustop covers for all my cars.

I travel with the cover for hotel protection.

I thought Block-it was also a Kimberly-Clark product.

I've got a Wolf 3 layer non-custom from Summit, it was $59, and does a good job for outdoors, a great job for indoors...

It is - they changed the names of all the cover materials to Block-It XXX. I just can't remember which is which.
