What are UV inhibitors?

0

Just about everything is degraded by Ultra Violet Rays from the sun especially fabrics. To slow down the degradation process, chemicals are added during the production of the fabric. You can’t to see them, smell them or feel them but they are there all the same. The chemicals are expensive so your best bet is to buy a cover from a reputable manufacturer who believes in quality. To reduce cost, one of the first things a mill will usually cut is the percentage of UV inhibitors being used. That means a cheap car cover won’t last very long. Although our covers have these inhibitors, you can always spray them with 303 protectant about every six months as an extra margin of protection.
