Even with the new water borne paints by GM, they recommend no covers on their cars for 2-3 months (as per their owners manuals). Hmmm.....
You can rub on the top layer(s) all day long, but the underlying base is still soft and seams on certain covers can leave indentations. Please don't ask me why I know this...

Black looks deep!
I believe the thinking is that the paint's chemicals are being released into the air and a car cover may/will block or inhibit their release into the air as the paint cures. But what do I know.
