Car exterior windshield covers are protective accessories designed to be placed on the outside of a car’s windshield to shield it from sun, heat, snow, frost, and dust. They help keep the car interior cooler by blocking UV rays and heat, and they protect the windshield from frost or snow accumulation in colder climates.
Types and Features
- Many covers are made of reflective materials such as aluminum film composites or polyester with waterproof coatings, providing heat insulation and UV blocking.
- Some covers have magnets or straps to secure them firmly to the vehicle and prevent theft.
- They can be designed for universal fit or custom sizes specific to vehicle models.
- Some covers are foldable and easy to store when not in use.
Popular Uses
- Sunshade covers to reduce interior heat and prevent dashboard damage from sun exposure.
- Frost and snow protection in winter to avoid scraping ice from the windshield.
- Dust and rain protection for parked vehicles.
