Let me give you a quick scenario of how the three day car show went at the Shepherd of the Hills super summer cruise. I took my car and the car capsule out Thursday morning and set up on the grounds near the inspiration tower. When I first pulled up I placed the car capsule on the ground and rolled the plastic covering back to the rear of for the car would be sitting. I backed the car over this, and got the car ready for the show. This included having the judges judge the car. Thursday afternoon about 4 PM, people were starting to leave the area and I put the cover over the car and zipped it up and blew up the car capsule. That night between 4 AM and 7 AM it rained heavily, and there was reported dime size hail at the area where the cars from the car show were located. I arrived out there about 9 AM, my car was completely protected. By slapped the car capsule few times to get some of the excess water off the outside, then unzipped it and rolled it back again my car was completely dry without any difficulties on cleaning for the days show. I continue to keep the car there throughout the day. At the end of the day about 4 PM I again covered the car, and left the grounds. Throughout Thursday and Friday numerous people had asked me about this when they had saw the car capsule up. And I described how to put it up and where to get these from. In addition many people took pictures of the identifying area on the front of the car to include the area that has the website and the name of the car capsule on it. When I arrived on the grounds Saturday morning, there was a heavy fog. The fog was actually so thick you could actually see it moving through the air. I left the car capsule on initially, we then were informed there was a storm coming through the area. It was a very strong storm but was about 30 miles north of us. We would be receiving some heavy rain for a few minutes and some significant winds, that would blow the rest of the fog out. I left the car capsule up awaiting this storm to come in. As I was sitting in my other vehicle, the wind came through and was blowing the capsule from side to side but did never touch the sides of the car. As people were running for cover they saw that the car capsule was still up and protecting my car. After the storm quit, as I was taking down the capsule and folding it up to put it away for the next time that I would need it. Numerous people came up again and it were asking about this and had a fairly large crowd watching me take it down and see how easy it was to take down fold up and put away. Again as people were trying to dry off their cars my car was completely dry I popped the hood and was able to walk away. At the end of the day I was able to drive away with a completely dry protected car.

Thanks,
