CarCapsule
Sometimes a car needs a little more than just a cover, it needs a full capsule. CarCapsule is a little bit like a terrarium for a car, park it on the basemat, zip it up, turn on the fan, et voile – instant microenvironment just for the car. The internal air changes 3-4 times an hour, which keeps the interior temperature consistent and prevents moisture from forming. Made of 10 mil. PVC, the shell protects the car from all kinds of potential mishaps. Constructed entirely of the PVC material, should the power go out and the shell decompress, it still won’t hurt your car. Even their new Showroom CarCapsule hosts no metal or hard plastics. A fabulous gift for that special someone with that special ride. www.CarCapsule.com | 219.945.9493
