My Noah cover came with instructions that said to wash it in a large laundromat machine with a bottle of Fantastik cleaner as detergent.

Mine is filthy, having put up with the incessant NJ pollen for 3 years now... it is leaving residue on the car.
I realize I need to find a laundromat with a huge machine, but otherwise...
The pamphlet that came with it is fairly non-descriptive, just wondering what works and what doesn't... and what won't damage the material.
It's a California Car Cover NOAH cover.
Thanks, Mike
Believe it or not rain water cleans my Noah Wolf from all of the coffee stains on it. You could wash it with a garden hose and soft brush and soap and water and let it hang on a fence to dry or the laundromat will work. Posts: 5682 | From: Dearborn,Mi. | Registered: Feb 2002

I just put mine in the washer, then the dryer.
It shrank a tiny bit, but still covers the car well.
Of course with 5 kids, we have Super Capacity Machines!

Mine is well beyond the point of cleaning with rainwater. It needs a good agitatin Posts: 210 | From: Budd Lake, NJ | Registered: Apr 2003

The directions that came with the cover says 16 oz. of Fantastik! and air dry on the car. That's how we clean all of our car covers.
