Common Questions

Are they easy to clean?

Yes. Vinyl has a slick surface that is simple to wipe clean. Canvas-style fabrics trap mold and stains that are hard to remove.

How strong are the covers?

18 oz. vinyl is a very strong, long-lasting material. It is the same type of material used on semi-trailers to cover their cargo, and the abuse it takes on the highway is far more than most covers will ever see.

Which vinyl do most customers pick?

The two vinyls look the same, but most customers choose the thicker 18 oz. vinyl for its extra strength in bad weather.

My cover will be used indoors. Which material is best?

600D fabric is ideal indoors, or outdoors if the cover is mostly in the shade and away from harsh conditions.
