No matter what cover you use, make sure you wash or dust the car with a California duster before putting the cover on. It is the dust on the paint that has the abrasives in it that scratch. Also wash the cover at least once a year. We used to go to the laundromat but we got a new washer/dryer Whirlpool duet. It says it can handle 21 pairs of jeans! I don't know about that but it handles the car cover easily. Frank
