An hour in the sun. 157°F on the dash.

What a day of full sun does to a parked car

Sunlight starts the damage and heat speeds it up, and a car parked outside takes both from morning to dusk.

  • A sedan under a grey cover, seen from the rear three-quarter on open desert sand under a pale, hazy sky in hard sun

    Cabin heat soak

    On 100°F Arizona days, steering wheels averaged 127°F and seats 123°F after an hour in sun. A cover keeps sun off the glass.

    Paint fade

    Clear coat carries UV absorbers that guard the color beneath, and exposure wears them down. Under a cover, the paint sits in shade.

    Desert summers

    Phoenix logged 70 days at 110°F or hotter in 2024. Heat speeds up the damage sunlight starts, and the cover keeps that sun off.

Questions about sun & heat

Not sure which cover or size? Talk to a cover expert at 1-800-385-3603.

Does the sun really damage car paint?

Yes. Clear coat carries UV absorbers that protect the color coat, and exposure to the elements wears them down. Sunlight starts the damage and heat speeds up the chemical reactions that follow. Paint makers test coatings in both Arizona, for its sun and heat, and South Florida, where the added moisture is typically even harder on paint.

Can the sun fade my interior through the windows?

The side glass lets through far more of it than the windshield. A 2016 JAMA Ophthalmology study of 29 cars found windshields stopped 96% of UVA on average, but side windows only 71%, and one as little as 44%. A full cover puts fabric over every window.

Which cover should I buy for strong sun?

For a car parked outside in strong sun, we recommend the AllGuard Weatherproof Max: a UV treatment coating with a microporous film over a soft fleece liner. If it sits out in desert sun all year, step up to the AllGuard Platinum Shield. It has a silver 300D polyester shell (D is denier, a measure of yarn weight) that is breathable.

Will a car cover keep my car cooler?

We don't publish a temperature figure for our covers, and we won't guess at one. What a cover does is keep direct sun off the paint, the glass and the dashboard, the surfaces the sun works on all day.
