Car Cover

tiveytim · 10th January 2008, 10:35

I am after car cover for my Honda Civic 2.2 EX to stop my cats scratching it in the garage when i am not using it. Anyone know of a good quality cotton cover that fits the civic for a good price?

Many thanks, but i currently have a nylon one and the cats scratch through it.

I'd block all accesses to the garage or get rid of the cats.

More than my lifes worth.

I would be just as worried about the scratches a cover could put on my car. Banish the cats to a shed

Tape some baby socks to the cats feet! That'll stop them!!!!! [Unfortunately cats can't be de-clawed (it stops them walking as it affects the tendons

).]

Many Thanks. My Wife doesn't seem to like those ideas.

i have seen this one at halfords
Tyvek Car Cover Large from Halfords Was £82.49 Save £27.50 Price £54.99

It should damage the paint work putting on just for the weekends, should it?

Car Covers

Expensive, but good quality.

Thanks, think i will pick one up next week.

I have also been informed that car covers trap moisture and this can attack both paint and bodywork (check out the corrosion warranty, this may have something in there).

Would you be putting it on once the car is clean and perfectly dry

If not then yes, you probably would damage the paint.

Can't you keep the cats out of the garage
