Re: Good canopy for sunshine detailing?

Would a 10' x 10' canopy suffice for a car?

I went with a 12x12 then ended up buying another 12x12 because one was just not big enough. I have a G35

I have a 13x13 from academy. $140 with taxes. Cool thing about it it was a air vent type deal on the top to help minimize it from parachuting away.

Re: Good canopy for sunshine detailing?

I'm sure a 10 x 10 or even a 12 x 12 could cover the whole car...but why not just move it when you get to the section that needs work next?

Re: Good canopy for sunshine detailing?

FYI i picked up a 12x12 at Academy for $80 last night. Might pick up another for that kinda price. Would be hard to use both at the same time when mobile though.

Re: Good canopy for sunshine detailing?

About two months ago picked up an 12 x 14 EZ Up Escort Canopy from Kmart for $99. I then bought a pack of canopy leg weights (they look like steel workout plates) from Sports Authority for $30. Combination works out great!

That's what I'm talking about. Can you give us details (brand, price)?

You need at least 10x20 if you want to cover a whole car. It might not be large enough for all cars but it will be close
