Maybe a dumb question, but........
Do you guys wash your car covers, and if so, how??? I've had my 914 covered in my shop whiloe I was doing a bunch of fiberglass work on another project(s) and now cover is embedded with dust. I washed my car last and the cover did more harm then good when putting it back on. I was thinking maybe the big laundra-mat type washer would work? |

Depends on the cover I think. Mine is pretty thick, and seems to be made out of something other than cotton, or some kind of blend. I'm not at home now so I can't check to see what the material is, or the manufacturer. I do remember that the washing instructions say to use a commercial size washer (it wouldn't fit in my large capacity washer anyway) with a small amount mild detergent, and then to dry it with no heat.
Mine came with the car, and REALLY needs to be washed, so I'll be doing this soon too.... |
