WeatherShield, uses the patented EPIC by Nextec encapsulation process, originally developed for high performance outdoor sports-wear. Their proprietary technology uses precision and controlled placement of special polymers to make ordinary fabrics extraordinary! This encapsulation process places an ultra-thin film around the fabric fibers and precisely places a durable, breathable barrier within the woven polyester fabric to complete the high performance finish process. Unlike traditional coatings and laminations that just protect one side of the fabric, Nextec uses up to 40 computerized process controls to place protective polymers inside the fabric, to shed water, dust, bird droppings, tree sap and industrial pollutants.
Weathershield Car Covers WeatherShield is a fabric that provides maximum protection, but isn't bulky and hard to store. Using Nextec encapsulation technology we've created the ultimate car cover and we named it WeatherShield because no other fabric has ever shielded your car or truck from the elements like this one!
Now Choose From Eight (8) Colors! We do not recommend the use of bright color WeatherShield fabric on light color surfaces. "Crocking" is a fabric industry term for color transfer of dyes from a fabric to another surface. Each dye-lot of WeatherShield fabric is tested for both wet and dry crocking and certified to AATCC Test Standard ratings of 4 or higher (out of 5) for resistance to crocking. But even with continuous testing there is still a possibility that bright colors (red, green, blue, black & yellow) can transfer color dye when rubbed against light color surfaces. WeatherShield, uses a patented immersion process that uses heat and pressure to permanently encapsulate the fibers of the fabric to shed moisture and block dust, dirt, bird droppings, tree sap and grime. This encapsulation process places an ultra thin coating around the fabric fibers and at the same time creates a durable, breathable barrier within the woven polyester fabric to complete the high performance finish process. Unlike traditional coatings and laminations that just protect one side of the fabric WeatherShield places long lasting protective formulas inside the fabric. The result is a fabric that provides maximum protection, but isn't bulky and hard to store. Using this immersion encapsulation technology we've created the ultimate car cover...and we named it WeatherShield because no other fabric has every shielded your car or truck from the elements like this one! This immersion encapsulation coats the fibers and fills the voids between the threads with a breathable barrier to assure any moisture that does get under the cover (or heat on a hot summer day) can easily escape through the fabric. During evaporation moisture turns into vapor and the vapor is smaller than water droplets so it easily transfers through the fabric. The base, high-strength, polyester fabric is naturally UV resistant, but we've added UV inhibitors to the polymers to help slow-down the degradation that occurs naturally on anything exposed to sun for an extended period of time. |

You just couldn’t afford a mind blowing Chevelle SS in 1970, but your love affair for that famous muscle car has always lingered. Now you finally have your dream car and it’s become part of the family. Whether it’s an original or total restoration, it deserves the best protection from Mother Nature at outdoor shows as well as in the garage. Covercraft Industries has just what you need with their revolutionary WeatherShield car cover. It’s high performance protection for your high performance car. WeatherShield features the NEXTEC encapsulation process, which places an ultra thin film around the individual fabric fibers, which installs a durable, breathable barrier within the woven fabric. The protection is inside the material as well as on the surface. All WeatherShield covers feature overlapped, double-stitched seams, neoprene elastic hems for a snug fit and reinforced non-scratch tie- down grommets. WeatherShield is lightweight (less than 5 ounces per square yard) but extremely durable and can be washed and dried at home. * Note: For more information on how Nextec makes "Performance Fabrics for the Real World" visit www.nextec.com  |

WeatherShield
fabric is manufactured exclusively for Covercraft using Nextec patented
encapsulation process developed for outdoor performance wear. This
encapsulation process uses precision and controlled placement of
proprietary polymers to make ordinary fabrics extraordinary. By
placing an ultra-thin film around the fabric fibers this process
created a durable breathable barrier within the fabric. Unlike traditional
coatings and laminations that just protects one side of the fabric,
this process places protective polymers inside the fabric!
