Neoprene winch covers resist water and cracking.
- Keep your winch clean and out of the weather, which ultimately makes your winch last longer.
- Protect synthetic winch rope from exposure to UV rays.
- Keep the cable from freezing up during the winter months.
- Keep salt off and prevent corrosion.
- Protect your winch from bug guts, dirt, debris, rain, snow, mud, and sun.
Which type of cover should I get?
There are two basic types of winch covers: hard and soft. Hard covers are made from molded plastic. Soft covers are made from nylon-backed vinyl or neoprene material. Which type of cover is best for you depends on your winch model and style preference. Neoprene covers are preferred for their resistance to water and cracking.
Yes. They repel water and moisture and protect your winch from exposure to rain and snow.
What is neoprene material?
Neoprene is a synthetic rubber material that resists oils, moisture, and aging. It is used in many waterproof materials, including wet suits and diving gear. Neoprene will not crack, unlike vinyl or hard plastic.
Will the cover stay in place while I ride?
Yes. Because of the tight-fitting elastic properties of neoprene, the cover molds to the shape of your winch and stays snugly in place.
Will this cover fit my winch?
Most winch covers are listed for a specific winch brand, model, and size. If your winch is a different model than those listed, you may want to contact the company before making your purchase to find out if the cover will fit your winch. Depending on the body style, dimensions, and motor on your winch, the cover may fit similar style winches.

PWC Jet Ski Cover (available in 3 sizes)
You ride your jet ski hard on the water. To make sure your watercraft performs up to its potential, it’s important to keep it covered between rides and during the off-season. The sun’s UV rays and the constant exposure to rain, snow, dew, and other moisture can damage your jet ski. A PWC cover can keep your watercraft clean, dry, and ready to ride at a moment’s notice.
Jet ski covers are available with a universal or custom fit. Custom covers offer a near perfect fit, but be prepared to pay the price. Universal and semi-custom covers are more affordable and offer an adjustable fit that provides superior protection for your ride.
In order to find the right size jet ski cover, make sure you get the right measurements for your watercraft. Measure from the front nose to the longest rear point for proper sizing. Then choose the cover that best fits the dimensions of your boat.

The DuraShield golf cart cover comes with an EZ-open rear zipper panel for easy access.
Why do I need a golf cart cover?
A golf cart cover creates a protective barrier between your golf cart and the elements that can damage it: rain, snow, dirt, dust, debris, and UV rays. Using a golf cart cover is a simple way to make your golf cart last longer and look nicer.
What’s the difference between a universal cover and a custom cover?
A universal cover is designed to fit a variety of golf cart makes and models. It provides superior protection at an affordable price. A custom cover is made to fit the exact specifications and features of your cover. However, this custom fit comes at a price.
Is it waterproof?
Most golf cart covers keep your cart dry in rainy and wet conditions; however, in a downpour, some moisture may seep through. Please note that condensation will form on all covered vehicles—whether the cover is waterproof or not—as a result of the thermal barrier created by the cover. To counteract this effect, the DuraShield cover includes a venting system that allows the cover to “breathe” and expel any moisture or condensation that forms underneath the cover.
Is it mold-proof?
The built-in vents on the DuraShield golf cart cover allow moisture to evaporate and discourage the growth of mold and mildew.
How do I install the cover?
Drape the cover over the golf cart with the zippered panel at the back. Pull the sides of the cover down and snug the elastic hem around the wheels at the bottom of the cart.
How do I clean it?
Brush off loose dirt and debris. Then wipe down the cover with warm water and a soft cloth or sponge. You can also use a low pressure hose to clean the cover.
How do I store it?
Let the cover dry thoroughly before folding or rolling it for storage. Store the cover in the bag provided and keep it in a sheltered, dry area.
Can I use the cover for trailering?
We do not recommend using the DuraShield golf cart cover for trailering. The cover is not designed to withstand the stress of high speed winds during travel.

The Travel Motorcycle Cover by DuraShield is lightweight and durable for on-the-road protection for your bike. It’s small enough to stuff in your saddlebags and can be secured to your bike with a lock for extra security. See below for customer reviews on this motorcycle cover.

"After 5 years of usage it has lost some of its shine and color but still works perfectly."
“I have been using the motorcycle cover for over 5 years now (rain, shine or winter). This product is highly durable and value of money. After 5 years of usage it has lost some of its shine and color but still works perfectly. I would highly recommend this product.”
- Sanjeev Gupte

“Lightweight, strong, does the job! Used on medium-large dual-sport. Fits well with elastic at bottom and tie downs. Much more durable than light weight would imply. Excellent value!”
- MG

“This is a nice cover – I wouldn’t call it weather/water “proof” but it does a good job of keeping most of the moisture out.
I ride a 2001 Suzuki Marauder VZ800 and as another reviewer said, this fits very nicely over my bike, saddlebags, and trunk/sissybar bag.
I also have no problem folding it back up and sticking it in its carry bag and it fits nicely in either my saddlebags or my trunk/sissybar bag, which is 13″ T x 13″ W x 7″ D.”
- Parker Wolf
a
“I purchased this motorcycle for my husband for Christmas and he absolutely LOVES it! It is made of a durable material with elastic band around the entire cover, which provides extra security for the bike. The cover fits his (nearly mint condition) 1983 Honda Nighthawk with no trouble – and it’s a pretty big bike! Would definitely recommend this product to others.”

DuraShield ATV Storage Cover
Protecting your ATV with a storage cover is a small step, but it goes a long way in protecting your ATV from rain, snow, dirt, dust, and sun damage. Follow these instructions to properly install your
ATV cover from DuraShield or other manufacturers. These instructions also apply to most
UTV covers.
a
Installation
- Remove the cover from the storage bag and unfold the cover.
- Find the label sewn into the hem of the cover that indicates “FRONT.” Drape the front of the cover over the front of the ATV, carefully pulling it over the handlebars, mirrors, racks, and other front components. The cover is designed to reach over most front and rear rack combinations.
- Continue installing the cover as you work your way towards the rear of the ATV. Be careful not to snag the cover on the rear rack, foot pegs, muffler ends, and other sharp points.
- Pull the elastic hem down tightly around the wheels. It should reach down far enough to cover most of the wheels.
Cleaning
With very little maintenance, your ATV cover should last for years of use. To make sure your cover lasts as long as possible, you should clean it regularly. Brush away dirt and grime with a soft terry cloth. Then wash the cover with warm water and a sponge. Do not use harsh detergents to clean the cover, as this may damage the protective coatings. Use mild soap and water to clean stains that will not wash away with water alone. Allow the cover to air dry thoroughly before folding it for storage.
Boat Cover Support Pole
Keep water from pooling on your boat cover with the new
Adjustable Boat Cover Support Pole from DuraShield. Standing water on your boat or pontoon cover can allow moisture to seep through the cover. The extra weight on top of the cover can also stretch out the material and mess up the snug fit of the cover. With the use of one or more support poles, you can prevent water pockets and provide support in the right places to make the water run off the cover instead of puddling.
a
The DuraShield boat cover support is constructed of 1″ aluminum tubing that is lightweight and corrosion resistant. The support pole includes anti-slip rubber ends to keep it in place and a thumb set adjustment knob. The telescoping pole adjusts from 36 to 64 inches and can be used to support any area of the cover. Depending on the size of your boat or pontoon, you may need to use more than one support pole.
Features:
- 1″ Aluminum Tube
- Resists Corrosion
- Telescope Adjustment
- 36″ to 64″ Height Adjustment
- 1 per package

Trailerable Boat Cover Installation Diagram
Whether you’re trailering your boat or storing it for the off-season, a
trailerable boat cover can provide the protection and shelter that your boat needs. Rain, snow, and UV rays can damage your boat if left unprotected. Leaves, dirt, and debris can leave it dirty and wet. With a boat cover, all these factors are eliminated, and your boat is ready for use whenever you are.
a
See the installation steps below to secure your cover for trailering or storage. These instructions are designed specifically for DuraShield boat covers; however, they may also apply to covers from other manufacturers.
To Install Your Boat Cover:
- Cover any sharp points or edges on the boat (such as the corners of the windshield) with a cloth or sponge to avoid rips or tears when the cover is strapped tightly across the boat.
a
- Find the label with arrows, sewn into the hem of the cover, that indicates “Front.” Drape the front of the cover over the bow. Then roll the cover back over the boat and pull down the sides. The elastic hem or shock cord will help secure it in place.
a
Boat Cover Strap System
- Use tie down straps to secure the cover to the boat. Each tie down system works differently. The following instructions apply specifically to the DuraShield Boat Cover tie down system. Connect four straps (A) to the four lower buckles (C) on one side of the cover and run the straps underneath the trailer beams to the other side of the boat. Connect the other end of the straps into the lower buckles (C) on the other side of the cover.
a
- Connect four straps (B) to the four upper buckles (D) on one side of the cover and run the straps over the top of the cover through the loops. Connect these straps to the upper buckles (D) on the other side of the cover.
a
- After connecting all of the straps, cinch the straps down tight for a secure fit.
Boat Trailering Tips
Be sure to use, tighten, and secure all straps and hooks when transporting your boat on a trailer or open vehicle. Failure to do this may cause the cover to blow off and cause injury to others. It may also result in damage to the cover.
After driving a short distance, stop and check to make sure the boat and cover are secure. Tighten the straps as needed. Continue to check the boat and cover at all rest stops along the way. We recommend the use of additional tie downs for high speed travel.
Dust covers for motorcycles provide indoor protection.
When it comes to choosing a motorcycle cover, there are several things to consider before deciding which type of cover you need. Are you planning to store your motorcycle indoors or outdoors? Will it be exposed to the elements or sheltered in a carport or garage? Do you plan to carry the cover on your bike to use on the road? Do you want the ability to secure the cover with a lock?
a
Indoor or Outdoor Storage
For indoor storage, a motorcycle dust cover is all you need. This light cotton material is breathable for protection in moist or humid conditions, and the soft material won’t scratch your bike. Use a dust cover when weather protection is not a factor.
For outdoor storage, you need protection from the weather with a lined motorcycle storage cover. The thick, water-resistant material is tough enough to hold up under regular exposure to rain, snow, UV rays, and other outdoor stresses. The more exposure your bike will have to the elements, the more protection you need from your cover. Make sure the cover includes a venting system to prevent moisture damage.
Travel Covers
If you plan to take your cover with you on the road, you’ll want to look for a travel motorcycle cover. These covers are lightweight and compact for easy on-board storage without filling up your saddlebags. Made of a thinner material than outdoor storage covers, they provide water-resistant protection for use on road trips or just around town.
Motorycle Cover Locks
You can reduce the chances of your cover or bike being stolen by locking the cover to your bike with a cable lock. Some motorcycle covers include reinforced grommets at the hem that allow you to slip a lock under the bike. A motorcycle cover lock also secures your cover in strong winds.
