I use a cover on my daily driver. It's NOT water proof but it is totally safe and abrasive proof on the paint. It's a KENKO brand and it's made from Tyvec. The cover is so light that it floats over the car in a small breeze and dries in minutes after rain. May be throw the plastic dropsheet over the car and put the tyvec one over the lot. What I want to emphasise here is abrasion. When you find a suitable cover. Pinch a fold of the cover between your thumb and forefinger and rub the fingers back and forth. How does it feel ? Smooth...OK. If there is any sort of friction or roughness. You know what it will do to the paint. A lot of covers I looked at felt like nail files !
