I have a wolf cover. I've washed it a couple times before.

String a rope or two up between trees or whatever (or use a clothes line) and wash and spray down. Another option.

I used to use a CA car cover. Washed it in the large machines you speak of. Used liquid soap. Never put it in the dryer. (Not sure if the dryer would harm the material or not)

I've washed my Covercraft cover a few times in the machine, but mostly just lay it on top my fence and hose it off and let dry.

I have a CA car cover that cost me alot of money. I believe I have the Noah.

I have a washer and dryer at home. Could I just use the laundry detergent at home and just not dry it in the machine?

Thanks.

Thats what I do and dry it outside. Shake the lint out with a helper before you cover the car again.

Wash on cold, with very little soap and let air dry. DO NOT put in the dryer!

I wonder is "no heat"/"fluff" would be ok.

CA car covers reccomend just putting it on your car like normal and wash it while it's on your car. Then let it dry on your car.

It will shrink....that's right from the mouth of a Cal Car Cover rep I spoke to.

I have a california car cover and when I wash mine, I use the large industrial washers. The company recommends using about a 1/2 of a 32 ounce bottle of a cleaner called fantastic for the soap instead of regular detergent. Spread the cover back over your car and let it air dry.

looks like im going to the laundry mat. as for the drying part, theres no way im going to let a damp cover air dry on my car. that would make me worry. thanks everyone.
