How to protect the seats from a mighty range of hazards

Vehicle seats are prone to damage that can be caused due to the following.

Kids and pets
Your furry four legged friend loves you endlessly, but that does not stop him from harming the interiors of your automobile. Yes the pet does not mean to cause the harm, but this does not help you. Saliva stains, scratch marks and body hair, all end up damaging the upholstery.

Kids can also smear chocolate, pastry and spill drinks and the stains are difficult to remove. In most cases it becomes an impossible job to stop the kids from doing so. So what can you do? All you can do really is take precautions.

Moisture
Moisture in your clothing (in any form, like wet swim suits, moist clothing items, etc) can lead to serious problems for your upholstery. Moisture is especially problematic for residents of the drizzly Pacific Northwest and other wet zones. Leather's worst enemy is water. When it gets wet, it becomes tacky to the touch – a sign that the leather's natural oils are being washed out. Cloth seating is more prone to damage from moisture. When water seeps into factory-installed fabrics, it can fester and grow into ugly, stinky, disgusting mold. Never fear; our seat covers come in a wide selection of materials with varying degrees of water resistance to protect your interior forever. In fact, Coverking uses some materials that are ‘breathable’ to keep the vehicle absolutely dry even during precipitation.

Friction
Whenever you go out of the car or board the vehicle, your seat covers suffer some amount of damage.. Like sandpaper on a jagged block of wood, the texture of your clothing grates against the texture of the upholstery (leather and cloth alike). This constant friction between your bodily attires and your seat steadily grinds away at your upholstery. As time passes, the strength of the leather or fabric starts to wane, and it will eventually start becoming threadbare, torn and split. Of course, this pitiful fate can easily be avoided with a quality set of Coverking seat covers.

UV radiation
UV or Ultra Violet rays are harmful not only to our skin and the eyes, they also cause much harm to automobile upholstery and paint work. Leather is especially susceptible to sun damage because UV radiation dries out the natural oils in the leather. Without these oils keeping things moist, the leather will eventually start to crack. Cloth upholstery is also in danger. Direct sunlight on your fabrics has a bleaching effect. Where once your seats were dark blue or black, an overdose of ultra violet radiation will leave them looking purple or ashen. Since you can't always park in the shade, you can give yourself year-round protection with a snazzy set of seat covers

How to cover existing damage economically

Minor matters often create major hassles with vehicle upholstery. A leaky pen inadvertently left lying in the back seat or the scars left by the over active Boxer puppy on the backseat may prove unduly embarrassing to you. However, these not pose any problem now. Following Coverking’s seat cover research guide you can jolly well rejuvenate your vehicle's seats without having to go through the hassle of a complete re-upholstering job. Instead of calling up your dealer and shelling out a hefty sum for new seats, you can simply slide a new set of seat covers directly over the old ones. No muss, no fuss- just great looking seat covers that fit like gloves. However, there are 3 different fitting seat covers, the Custom Fit, Semi Custom Fit and Universal Fit.

Go in for Custom Fit Seat Coversif you prefer only the very best. Just as well-tailored suit is properly measured, cut and stitched to fit the unique shapes and contours of the wearer, so too is a custom fit seat cover that is meticulously designed for a precise fit over your seats. No part of your vehicle's seat is forgotten or overlooked - not the position of the head rest, nor the location of the seat's ergonomic controls or where your seatbelts are mounted. Everything is taken into consideration, and these made-to-measure seat covers will fit like they were factory-installed. Moreover, custom-fit seat covers will not obstruct your seat's side-impact airbags, so you'll be just as secure as before, only with better looking and better protected upholstery.

Semi-Custom Fit Seat Coversare the inexpensive option to the tailored suit. They are stitched together following patterns that will work with your vehicle's seats as well as with similarly sized seats in other cars, trucks and SUVs. Yes, these covers are better than the Universal type, but they do not fit very well because they are not made from the precise measurements.

Universal Seat Coverswill sure fit any high-back or low-back bucket seat, not considering the make, model or year of manufacture of the vehicle. These covers are never recommended, because they never fit. Either the Universal covers end up being too tight or too loose.
