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.
