Pretty Interstate Machine Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 Dumb newbie question, I've developed a leak in the east coast storms and hurricane weather. I'm in the process of finding someone to help me get it fixed up, but in the meantime I'm trying to avoid making it worse. I've searched the forums and found a lot of camper covers, but I was hoping to find something more akin to a "cap" that would cover the top of my toyhome, but not much more than that. So we're talking the entire top, but only down so far as my overcab hangs, that way I could still drive with it on. Does such a thing exist? Should I just buy a regular cover and cut it up? Or should I just fashion one from a tarp? Anyone that's been through something with this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linda s Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 Not a good idea. Sooner or later that cap you fashion will fly off and very likely cover the windshield of the car behind you. Probably why no one makes such a thing. They would get sued constantly. Linda S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty Interstate Machine Posted October 7, 2018 Author Share Posted October 7, 2018 I feel like for the 1/3 price of the adco cap I can buy a tarp... is there any reason to not do that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WME Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 Well you wanted a "cap", you didn't say cheap.? A good tarp will do what you want. Lots of rubber straps to keep things tight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no brand loyalty ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
