However, there seemed to a lack of underlying soft material - necessary to protect key areas of the body from chafe .
The Covercraft Evolution has a soft white liner on the inside that works great, except it leaves white fuzz on the convertible top. I never put the cover on if the car is dirty to keep abrasive particles from getting imbedded into the lining and scuffing the finish. I get a lot of comments about how shiny the car is, and a lot of the non-Porsche people think the 12 year old car is new, even with 108k on it! Everone knows that a dark color car shows everything.
If the car is dirty, I wash it before putting the cover over it. Only wax it twice a year, once in the Spring, and once in the Fall.
