Car parked outside? Here's how to protect it from the sun. Read more from Brian Cooley - roadshow.co/8U72cG

    The correct but goofy looking way to use a sun shield is to actually put it on the outside of the windshield. It’ll keep the car a lot cooler. When on the inside, it’s just reflecting the heat into the cabin.

    It's fine just putting it on the inside, it doesnt reflect the heat into the cabin, if it fits properly it will reflect nearly all the heat back through the windshield. Not worth putting it on the outside for like 5% better reflection when it can easily be blown away by wind or just taken off by someone.

    If ceramic coating is expensive. Applying car wax can help protect the paint from UV rays. And the dirt won't stick too much when there is wax. It is a cheaper alternative. But wax comes off eventually. So you need to maintain it at least once a month.

At which time you have to wonder, why does one care about putting a car cover on the car at all? Indoor covers are the only car covers that make sense because they are applied in a controlled environment without outdoor hazards and dirt.

    You shouldn't put a car cover on a car unless the car has been washed and is totally clean. Driving it to work when it gets road dust all over it and putting a car cover on a car that isn't car wash fresh isn't a good idea. You could use car detailer before covering it at work but doing that and then covering the car is going to get you exhausted before you start your day on the job.

    @@UNPhantom93 - Sure lots of people get scratches and surface swirls from car covers BECAUSE THEY DON'T FOLLOW THE ADVICE I CITED ABOVE. You should NEVER put a car cover on a car that isn't car wash clean. If you live in Oman, that is the DESERT and if you drive your car even a short distance in Oman where you live (or in the California desert of Palm Springs where I live), you are going to get dust on it. No. No. No. No. You can't do that. I use a car cover all the time. I'm retired and have time to take care of my car. So if I remove my car cover to use my car, I let the car sit until nighttime and then take a hose to it, dry it off and then apply a spray coat of Quick Detailer (about 30 minutes of work). THEN I put my car cover back on. It's 110 degrees today where I am. Without a car cover, the inside of my car would COOK. I don't get scratches or paint damage because I don't put a car cover on a dusty or dirty car. Rule of thumb? If you can't hose off your car and dry it before putting on a car cover, don't put a car cover on.

    @@ThomasKOdell I sorta disagree, I have a black honda CR-V and a New Black KIA Forte. I have used the car cover on the Honda for the last 5 years and just started using it on my KIA. The Honda still looks like new. Yes, it is better to have it washed but I can't do that all the time. Many times I just put it on with the car dirty. It hasn't done any scratching yet. It protects from the sun very well. People say it looks like I just brought it home from the dealership. I roll up the cover when I put it on and take it off and I do this daily, takes a few minutes but not a problem. It is the cheapest car cover I could get. The Budge cover for the Honda CR is breathable and dries out quickly if it rains. I highly recommend it. As the cover is cheap it last a couple of seasons and I have to replace it. I am on my 3rd cover for the Honda.
