I wondering if anyone else has encountered this problem? Has anyone found a fix for this. You spend hours detailing the car and in about 3-4 days it's pretty much ruined with whatever is happening under the car cover.

Thanks guys!
I have not...always used california car covers. Not sure if the maker has anything to do with it, but maybe put a towel over the windshield prior to putting on cover?

+1 for California Car Covers. I've used mine nearly every day for a year now with no residue.
