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 material. I washed Babydoll's cover in my washing machine OK, but the dryer melted huge holes in it and hardened up the (plastic) material in so many places that it was rendered useless. So we came up with the Redneck Car Cover instead. This consisted of an old blanket, a used shower curtain, a too-small silver tarp, and a piece of cinder block.
