    Give Your Car the Tyvek® Advantage:

     Who Better to Protect Car Paint than DuPont?

The world leader in automotive finishes, DuPont is uniquely qualified to develop and recommend covers that will protect a car's paint. Tyvek® and Tyvek® Plus™ were created in response to a need for a strong, durable protective cover against the elements and environmental pollution. Car covers made of DuPont Tyvek® and Tyvek® Plus™ use a unique flash-spunbonded process to create a fabric which resists water and damaging UV rays. Whether you live in sunny Tampa, rainy Seattle or anywhere in between, depend on a Car Cover made of Tyvek® or Tyvek® Plus™ to give your car unmatched protection against the elements:

     Protects against damaging UV rays:

The sun can cause paint and interior surfaces to fade, while vinyl, rubber, leather, and fabrics can dry, crack, and deteriorate. Car covers made of DuPont Tyvek® provide protection from 99.8% of the sun's rays so your exterior and interior will continue to look like new.

     Easy to handle and store:

Car covers made of Tyvek® weigh an average of 2.5 pounds, making them less bulky, and easier to handle and store than other covers. You can tuck the cover away in your trunk and still have plenty of room for other things.

     Breathable surface allows moisture to escape:

The sun can cause paint and interior surfaces to fade, while vinyl, rubber, leather, and fabrics can dry, crack, and deteriorate. Car covers made of DuPont Tyvek® provide protection from 99.8% of the sun's rays so your exterior and interior will continue to look like new.

     Provides superior water resistance:

Inherently water- resistant, car covers made of Tyvek® and Tyvek® Plus™ hold out nearly twice as much water as other covers. Equally important in today's environment, these covers also protect against acid rain, a leading cause of paint deterioration and other industrial pollutants.

     Tests prove Tyvek® keeps vehicles the coolest

Over an hour, the temperature rises from 84 to 88. It is a warm, pleasantly sunny day. But inside your car, the temperature shoots up to 130! Hardly pleasant. You feel it the moment you get in. The stifling heat…a steering wheel that is too hot to touch…a scorching seat. But even worse is the damage it does to your car. Over time, radiant heat from the sun can dry the dashboard and eventually cause it to crack. The sun's harsh rays can cause the car's fabrics to fade and degrade. And, your car's finish will eventually look faded and dull from constant exposure to ultraviolet rays. Help is here...

A new study by DSET Laboratories shows with a car cover made of DuPont Tyvek® or Tyvek® Plus, the temperature inside a car remains nearly the same temperature as the outside, even after a car has been baking in the sun all day. In fact, the two car covers of Tyvek® were the only car covers tested that almost completely eliminated heat build-up.

The study was conducted in Phoenix, Arizona over a two-day period. DSET tested six green Buick Skylarks, each with the same interior colors. On the first day all six cars were exposed to the sun without covers to ensure that one car didn't absorb more heat than another. The average temperature of the cars that day varied by only 3 degrees. On the second day, five cars were tested, each with a different cover, and one car without a cover. The test ran from 7:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

The results: The covers made from Tyvek® and Tyvek® Plus never allowed the dashboard temperatures to rise more than 4 degrees above the outside air temperature, which at the highest point in the day was 104 degrees. With an Evolution 4 cover, however, the inside car temperature rose more than twenty degrees above the outside temperature. And, with a Sentrex®, the inside car temperature rose nearly 50 degrees above the outside temperature. The uncovered car reached a high temperature of 188, more than 70 degrees hotter than the outside temperature.

In fact, the hottest temperatures reached in the cars covered with Tyvek® and Tyvek® Plus covers was an average 30 degrees less than the other covers tested.

The results of this testing clearly show the superior performance of car covers made of Tyvek®. The unique structure of the fiber makes Tyvek® extremely strong, allowing it to provide excellent protection not only from the sun but also against other elements as well-from dust particles, tree sap and bird droppings to driving rains. In a recent test conducted by SGS US Testing Company Inc., Tyvek® held out nearly twice as much water as the other cover materials.
