Will this cover scratch my paint or leave marks?

Hard panel construction won't scratch, but check your hood and trunk daily for standing water—drain any pooling moisture to prevent spotting. The cover itself is paint-safe.

Does this work for outdoor storage year-round?

Yes. The waterproof sealed material handles rain, UV, and salt air. If you're in a harsh climate, rinse the cover every few weeks to clear buildup and keep seals clear.

What do I need to secure it in place?

The cover assembly is included, but you'll need rope, tie-downs, or bungee cords to secure it against wind. Test the fit before committing to permanent fastening—most drivers use adjustable straps through the wheel wells.
