Indoor Car Covers

Although i plan to get my car wrapped, I️ was wondering if i should also get a car cover for indoor use only?

was looking at the Coverking SAtin stretch which is Lycra and interior fleece. I know the car should be clean before covering to minimize scratches.

Anybody use a car cover? Can you cover a wrapped car?

I use the factory one. Fits and keeps the dust off as I'm in AZ.

what is the factory one like ?
I ordered it for the GTR ...was $370 (not cheap) .....is it fitted ? Stretchy ?

I just looked at Coverking Custom satin ...looks really nice....don't know how much it cost since I could not figure out how to price it after the designing step on their stupid website ...bad website)

Fit is perfect. It has a large AMG logo on the from hood so it's easy to find the right orientation and to put on. You've got a $200k car and your going aftermarket product that does Mustangs. I usually make it part of the deal but I forgot. Gen Manager gave me 25% off after the fact.. Id send you a photo but I'm in CA and car is at my house in AZ.

Think they are very similar and wouldn’t be surprised if covering doesn’t make it for MB. Price for MB is $370; Coverking is $399.

Is it ok to cover a car with PPF installed?

Covering a wrapped car— I was told yes it’s OK. Just go slow putting the cover on and off so you don’t catch an edge of the wrap.

I hope the pics help
