When choosing the fabric for your cover, the first question you need to ask yourself is: What would you like to use the cover for?
If your aircraft is in a hangar then a dust cover will be a great option. These covers are not waterproof and are intended for indoor use only. We have two options :
Standard dust covers
Made from a cotton-polyester mixture, these covers are robust, protect against dust, dirt and bird droppings. The inside is made of soft, self-polishing cotton, and the ventilation is great. This is a perfect solution for an inexpensive cover for your hangar.
Dust light covers - seersucker
The Dust light covers are made from a seersucker fabric that is particularly light and packs away tightly. The covers are still very robust. Due to the lower weight and the more flexible fabric, handling is more comfortable than with the heavier cotton covers. However, due to the thinner fabric, these covers are more sensitive to bird droppings, for example.
If your aircraft is outside, or you're looking for a protection option for travelling we have three type of Allweather covers to propose :
All our all-weather versions are completely proof against water and keep out UV radiation.
Allweather STANDARD cover:
The STANDARD All-weather covers feature a two-layer system on the top surfaces, with a watertight outer material and an inner structured cotton layer for a self-polishing effect. The lower side of the wing is made out of an orange mesh fabric, which allows good air circulation.
All-weather UNCUTABLE cover:
The UNCUTABLE Allweather is the cover we recommend! There is an additional and thicker soft mesh synthetic material below the weather-resistant layer, and it features some great advantages, such as air cushion between the cover and the surface of your aircraft (even without wind), resistance against mould and anti-condensation. As well as light impact protection against external influence and very light hail. We also recommend choosing the Clouddancers-quick-tight-system option for the wing covers, this gives you a significant advantage during strong wings, allowing you to tighten the covers quickly. This system is a great improvement in the rapid handling of the covers.
All-weather IMPACT cover:
The All-round protection. Clouddancers’s premium product is the impact protection cover. It is the safest and most comfortable cover. The impact cover can have several layers or our mesh fabric integrated into the top to the wings and elevator. The covers effectively protect against light mechanical stresses, storms, and light hail. If your aircraft cannot be stored in a hangar, this is the cover we recommend!
