| Originally started in Germany, where
Porsche covered the front of each car as it came off the production
line prior to a shake-down run around their famous test track, masks
have long been considered a necessity for any car owner wanting to
protect the area of the car that takes the most abuse on the road
- the front end, especially the leading edge of the hood and any painted
areas around the grille. Features include:
- Protective air intake screens are an integral part of the mask,
not separate, and they are sewn into the outside of the mask so
there are no loose pieces of material inside to abrade the paint
surface.
- Covered aluminum tabs allow adjustment at the fender wells
as vinyl expands and contracts due to temperature. Take a look
at a non-adjustable mask being driven down the road and you'll
see why this is an important feature.
- Reinforced air foils prevent flapping and lift. Very few patterns
don't require this feature; there is just too much air whipping
around the front of your vehicle as it goes down the road, like
cross-winds and back drafts from passing semi trucks.
- We use a micro-perforated finish on our vinyl. It allows the
mask to "breathe" and permits moisture vapor to evaporate
when the vehicle is driven in wet weather. Still, if a mask becomes
wet and is going to be left sitting in the sun, we recommend it
be removed to allow the backing to dry properly.
- Our heavy-gauge leather grain vinyl has a soft, protective
backing. We use white non-woven fleece so you can easily see when
it's time to clean the back-side of the mask.
- Seams are overlapped and finished with a strong, durable top
stitch. Edges are covered with soft, non-abrasive felt-rimmed
bindings.
Covercraft offers four (4) different styles of masks so you can
choose the look and protection level you require. |
