I purchased the platinum shield cover back in 2019 to cover my very large Tundra truck that sits outdoors 365 days a year since it is too long to fit in the garage. Well the cover started to show some "minor cracks" in the top material not the fleece lining. I contacted CS and they informed me they would take care of this matter, but had to pay the prorated fee and the S/H for the replacement (approx. $60). CS did offer to have me go to custom cover craft covers. This will require an additional "upgrade charge and lose the lifetime warranty". I opted to stay with Platinum Shield and thinking I might be able to salvage the old cover with some patch kits. I purchased 2 large patch kits and fixed the older cover. Well I received a new replacement cover from Carcovers and patch kit. I repaired the old one with the patch kit and I double covered my truck. I placed the new one underneath, the patched one and to do an experiment how long will this cover truly last even being patched. The new cover is like new right now but the older cover will need to go into the trash now after 2.5 years purely outdoor storage its gone. The replacement hopefully gives me a bit longer life. See attached pictures taken January 2021.

My initial review still holds strong in the heat the cover works great reflecting the heat it was much cooler in the cab than a grey evolution cover. Unfortunately just did not last very long. :(

Tip for consumers:
Confirm where this cover will be used and the type of environment. My cover is strictly for outdoors only and in SoCal sun and heat.

Very good product, no problems, very fast delivery as promised. My only concern was the shipping packing of the product. The shipping box was abused and the taping was sub par. It's great to reuse but should consider making the box a bit smaller by modifying the reuse box. No damage to the contents. Just a thought. I have worked in a warehouse for 4 years and presentation is a plus. Overall will continue to shop and tell f&f where they can get filters. Thank you...
