Good canopy for sunshine detailing?

**wgilles** · 07-31-2012, 03:30 PM

Can anyone recommend a good canopy (preferably one they've bought and used) for detailing in the sun?

Joe from Superior Shine has a very nice one.

He has pix on MOL, look up do a search on canopy and look for the thread: MOBILE DETAILERS - Check out my new canopy !!

little spendy but if your source of income is detailing, it's a good tool.

I have a 10x10 ez up tent and it works great. I picked it up at Ocean State Job lots for $130. I can set it up and down by myself and it's compact so it fits in my HHR.

I had a $90 one from walmart but after a good year of heavy abuse it finally broke on me. The ez up is built way better and is more heavy duty.

My only complaints would be that I have to worry about the angle of the sun when I set it up and that it doesn't cover the whole car. But I make it work.

Is there a reason that one costs more than this one Quik Shade Lawn & Garden Instant Canopy - Walmart.com which provides more shade?

Picked up a "Northwest Territory 14'x14' instant shelter" at Kmart yesterday for sixty-five bucks marked down from a hundred and thirty.

One person is suppose to be able to set it up in two minutes. But we'll see about that when I get around to using it sometime in the fall.

Thanks.

I picked up one from Dicks sporting Goods. It is a dome 12' x 12' domed for 127.00 plus free shipping. I got the weights for another 30.00. The brand is called quest. It is light blocking.
