Alcan Cover How About The Alcan Cover?

Any comments good or bad about the Alcan cover? Is it prone to increase corrosion with extended use in rain?
What say all?
Thanks!

The Alcan cover is what covers the front storage box, protecting it from stones, etc. as you travel.

The storage cover is what covers the entire teardrop when it is being stored, either inside or out.

 

Thanks, Betsey - I was talking about the wrong thing. We do have the Alcan cover and recommend it. There is some corrosion behind it from water, so another reason to do the woody wax.

 

We added the alcan cover last year - just seemed like a good idea to protect from dings. We like it.

 

Please keep in mind our original milled finish is history due to staining before I discovered Woody Wax.

Here are a couple of pics after going 25,000 miles braless. I hate bras. We have done minimal gravel roads with decent mud flaps.

If those that have an Alcon cover used for a few thousand miles will kindly remove it and post a pic that should tell the story.

Seems to me the Alcan's main purpose is to limit/eliminate road damage. Puncture holes create larger care and maintenance issues due to water damage then covering up stains with an Alcan.

Each person makes their own decisions.

As for me, I am more interested in preventing holes, then polishing.
