ABSTRACT:
A protective vehicle cover is shown for protecting an outer surface of a vehicle from hail and other falling objects. The cover includes a flexible blanket having an inner ply, an outer ply and bubble-like air pockets which are sandwiched between the inner and outer plies. A fastener is provided for attaching the flexible blanket to the outer surface of the vehicle. Preferably, the air pockets are bubble-like spherical or hemispherical embossments formed on an inner ply of the blanket material, the pockets being generally circular in cross-section with an average maximum diameter of about 1.5 inches or less. An inner thin film plastic backing layer can be laminated to an intermediate film layer which has been embossed to form the air pockets therebetween with an outer cover layer being laminated to the emboss layer to provide an outer, decorative appearance for the vehicle cover.
