OK or wash car cover?
 
In my recent car purchase an original Porsche Silverguard car cover was included. It's a bit nasty and mildewy. Is this something that can be thrown in a washing machine?

Thanks for your help

yeah, I washed different car covers many times, just make sure you dry it pretty good

you might want to use a commercial (coin-op) laundry machine, gentle cycle, and air-dry it when spring arrives.

This is the exact advice California Car Cover once gave me.

yea and my 0.02 after a washing I just put mine in the big dryer and all seems fine :)

Definitely use the laundrymat industrial washers and dryers. They cost double than the regular machines but can handle the heavier wet covers.

Thanks all for the advice. I also inhereted a cover from a 993TT that I'll give a try. Just thought the one that came with the car would be best and worth saving.
