370z outdoor cover suggestions

ShaggyL · 11-01-2016, 02:17 PM

Hey folks. After a looong time, I finally bought the car I always wanted. A new 370z with touring and sport package in beautiful magma red. Right now I don't have room in the garage so I'm looking for a suitable outdoor cover for Long Island weather. I want it to withstand rain and snow, yet he soft on the inside.

I came across the silverguard pen covers and they seem to do what I'm looking for. Anyone tried them?
Also a silly question, could I use an indoor form fitted dust cover and then cover it with a heavy duty outdoor one? Or would that trap too much humidity. Any suggestions are appreciated!

I'd say clean the garage and put the bike in your house. Sorry I can't be of more assistance. I have a perforated indoor cover that I put on my car when it's in storage, but I've never stored my car outside in the winter...it'd stress me out.

Does that combination exist in a 2017?

Go to the Covercraft website and read up on the types of covers and their applications. They undoubtedly make something designed for that scenario. They are not cheap, but the quality & warranty are good.

car covers are meh unless u plan to put it on and leave it on for a long duration.

just put a nice coat of sealant and wash frequently.

I have an indoor covercraft formfit cover for my motorcycle and I love it. Super soft and great quality. Unfortunately I havnt had any experience with their outdoor products so not sure what I'd be looking at.

Paint sealant? Sounds like something I should have heard about before... Is it like a wax?

wax is carnauba based, sealants are polymer based.

my dd's are parked 24/7. i use Prima HydroMax sealant every couple of months. use it on paint, glass, plastics, seals, wheels.. will not whiten... sheets water nicely.. easy to apply too.
