    ok lang ba mag lagay ng car cover kahit medyo basa pa yung oto? makakasira ba ng pintura yun? sa gabi lang naman eh. madami kasing pusa sa amin eh, at favorite nilang tambayan yung ilalim ng oto ko...baka maisipan nilang maglampungan sa ibabaw ng oto kaya nilalagyan ko ng cover..

    no no no never do that...

    1) The cover's color will stain the paint, have had quite a few of such cases in our shop already, quite a pain to solve.

    2) Promotes rusting

    3) Makes the cover dirty from inside-out, so what's the use of the cover when it'll be the one guaranteed to scratch the paint?

    Punasan mo muna ang kotse mo kung basa bago lagyan ng kumot. Gaya ng sabi ni theveed magkaroon ng stain.

    sir follow up question po with the car cover..

    wala rin kasi akong bubong sa garahe, when I come home from work, I cover the car pero hindi ko tinatakpan ung sa hood (engine) para sumingaw muna ung init, tapos kapag malamig na saka ko tatakpan din ung hood. tama po ba un? also, pano sir kapag umuulan? dapat bang tanggalin ung car cover after the rain? ung car cover ko po ung galing casa ung may butas butas sa cover (sorry don't know the term po)

    thanks.

    Yes, better yet, just keep your hood open for a while and it'll cool a lot faster.

    Depending if your cover is "REALLY" waterproof, if it is, just leave it there then shake it off after.

    Sir thanks for you reply. Will follow your advise

    Also sir napansin ko, hindi ata waterproof ung car cover, kasi kapag talagang malakas ang ulan napapansin ko basa din ung loob

    Pag umuulan na, huwag mo nang lagyan ng cover.... Hindi na siguro sasampahin pa iyan ng pusa para sa ibabaw ng kotse mo mag-away o maglampungan....
