Default How many use a car cover during winter storage?

Just wondering whether everyone uses a car cover for those non daily driver cars that hibernate during winter?? I have a garage and notice that I get a lot of dust if it sets for a week or two! I am considering the Dustop one from 3M !
Any thoughts?

Although I do not store my car over the winter I will always cover it when I have just been washed. However, I never cover it if the elements have got to it or it has been driven.

In a garage the Honda Cover is excellent. I use mine often.

I store mine in the garage over the winter with the Honda cover.

Don't know the price of the 3M but the OEM cover is just fine for your purpose. I cover my car all winter, keeps dust off and I don't have to worry about bumping into the car when I move around in the close quarters

I have a company vehicle, so I don't normally drive the S Monday - Friday. If it is clean, I always make a point of throwing the cover on!
ebay has them cheap!
