How to avoid hail damage? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Apparently it's supposed to hail tonight. My car doesn't go into the garage and I don't want my car to get hail damage. I think if I put a blanket or two on it, it wouldn't stop much damage from happening. I do not have a car cover. What are some ways I could avoid damage? Thanks!

go to a car wash, what is so hard to understand? or any other covered place that you could pull under

If garage is not possible, something else I can think of is drop your car off in a covered garage for the night. Have a friend/significant other pick you up and drop you back home.

Ok, so just go park under one. Your initial post was ambiguous.

We had a nice hail storm today. Glad my cars were inside. It was nasty.

I don't know where a place like that is around me. And my dad has to take my car to work tomorrow at 4 A.M.

I can't keep it at a car wash all night.

There is always a covered garage somewhere. Mall perhaps?

The only mall near me with a garage is about 20 miles away.

Watch your local news and find about what time its supposed to move in. Then plan ahead of time and find a car wash, or gas station, or any place that is covered that you can get your car under it and wait it out. It wont last too long..

I'd drive 20 miles to a mall if it meant preventing hail damage to my car
