Happy Halloween! - Car Covers, Improve MPG, Gift Ideas...



Autumn leaves are falling, is your Mini covered?

Natural Hazards To Your Mini Cooper Paint:
Did you know that even non-industrial chemical sources can be hazardous to your paint? Splattered bugs, bird droppings, and dead autumn leaves all have the ingredients for a destructive chemical mess. When wet leaves sit on your cars finish for a few days, chemicals can etch down into the paint. In some parts of the country this can be so common that it happens even on new car lots. If the leaves are not cleaned almost every day, the paint can be so severely damaged that only a complete re-paint can make it look good again. Bird dropping can be an even worse problem. The problem is worst on the flat surfaces of the bonnet and top. After they dry up they then are baked into the paint with the sun. And in some areas of the country, even the water from a Sprinkler will leaves stains on your paint! Protect your car- put a car cover on it!

Do you actually have an Austin mini pickup that you make the car cover to fit or do you go off of dimensions that you can find on line of the pickup? I am talking about Part No: C5208GK in your online catalog.

Yes, out pick-up car cover has been made for many years to fit an actual Mini Pick-up. PS- I have owned one for 20 + years!
