Canopy Sizes
There's an 10x10 ez-up canopy with three side walls for $120 on my local craigslist. Gonna use it for shade to polish during the day.
I'm thinking I would cover half of my Acura TSX then cover the other half. Anyone worked like this or similar with a smaller canopy than the car?

I have used one in my yard for shade but not for auto use. Just be careful because on a breezy day it will tend to want around to move on you.

Re: Canopy Sizes
yep 10x10 is good. You will find the walls are worthless. Just seem to be in the way. As the sun moves around part of the car will always be exposed. As stated be carful with the wind, these things are huge kites that need to be tied down or you will find your self chasing it down the road or worse paying for a scratched car.

What is the largest pop-up that one person can deploy by themselves?
My experience with them is limited to tailgating

I use a pole one(not a "pop up") that is 10x20 from Harbor Freight and I take it up/down alone with no issues. It takes about 20 minutes but I usually just leave the metal frame up all summer.

Sears.com
12x14 for 112. i guess it's more up to how they are constructed, i have no idea how good or bad some are, i just know that if you get the wrong ones they can be a pain to open yourself. they just aren't meant for one person deployment.
the one in the link i have no idea about just linked for the size and price
