Car cover on Black? I wouldn't do that if you paid me!
I have lots of experience with covers. Basically if the car isn't clean don't cover it.
You'll definitely scratch the clear coat on your black car.
So I guess in dry dusty conditions a car cover is not a good idea unless you immeidately cover your after drying it.
I strongly suggest getting a top cover and Raggtopp protectant.
And never leave your car parked with the top down in the blazing sun. You'll fade the black plastic and ruin the leather.
try and get in the habit of using Meguiars NXT spray wax ( I don't usually recommend their products) with a non-microfiber towel with a tufted loop end. I recommend the SOnus Waffle weave towels.

and remember, the less you touch the paint the better.
