Hail protection that actually works - as tested in the hail storm shown in video. It takes only 2 mins to setup anywhere and requires No battery or electric power. I have used this personally for almost three years and it has protected my car.
MY CRITERIA FOR SELECTING THIS METHOD
I have looked for an easy hail protection method *for years*, that:
1) It has to actually work - protect
2) Be lightweight for anyone to use
3) Very portable, so I carry along and use when needed
4) Easy to Wrap-up after use
The method shown in video fulfills all four points for me. It takes only 2 minutes to deploy/setup to protect the car against regular hail (size shown in video), and a few minutes to wrap up after use. Because it is vinyl plastic, it doesn't stay wet so it is super easy to wrap-up after use. I keep mine in the trunk of the car, ready to use whenever and where ever needed.
ITEMS NEEDED:
* Plastic Mat 8 feet by 18 feet, amzn.to/3LpTUnW
* 4 Bungee cords 4 ft long, amzn.to/3v9HScW
ALTERNATE OPTION:
Heavy Duty Anti-Hail Car Cover
amzn.to/44COorC

IF YOU ALREADY HAVE DINGS:
GLISTON 45pcs Paintless Dent Repair Kit. I bought years ago when I didn't have a hail protection method and needed to fix some dings. It also works fantastic to fix parking lot dings.

UPDATE - APRIL 2024
This hail protection method is doing awesome and I frequently use it. It is spring storms and hail season again and I love the ease of using this system. There have been a few hail storms this year with average size hail and so far no dings on my vehicle!
IDEAS FOR MORE PROTECTION:
What I show in this video has worked for me so far in moderate hail. For large hail this method is likely not offer enough protection. After evaluating my options, I have settled on buying a large 'Yoga' mat and layer it under this RV mat. Here is the yoga mat which I am looking to purchase (but have not tested yet). Sharing this info in case it helps others:

* It fits the 4-point selection criteria I shared in this video!

That's a great idea.

@FlyBeee Год назад

Thank you. .. I tested it for two years and it has worked pretty good for me. There is storm system active today over in my area and am about to put this on my car. I have listed the mat and bungee cords in description of video - But If you need this in a hurry check your local Walmart - some stores carry it. The bungee cords you can get from any hardware store. Good luck!

@warsun8443 Год назад

Wow. That's a great idea

Thank you! I have used it for almost three years in many hail storms including one just last week. Let me know if you have any questions about using it. Thanks

500 IQ bro❤ For larger hail, I was thinking of Buying a Thick Comforter from Goodwill

@FlyBeee Год назад

Thank you! :) I appreciate the kind comment. Very good point about large hail - it is only a matter of time when it happens where I live. I too have considered options including buying a used comforter or rug, however I have leaned more towards using a large Yoga mat like this one (amzn.to/3oWzpJl). It fits the 4-point criteria I discuss in video to make it easy to deploy and wrap up - and to layer under the existing cover I have. This is not yet tested in large hail so can't comment on the results yet but in theory it checks off all key points. In terms of cost, a couple of these + this RV mat is still less than half my insurance deductible! lol

@@FlyBeee yoga mat is a great idea!! Or even those foam puzzle pads used at kindergartens. I just have to find some that are not puzzle shaped. Thanks for the help bro and I wish you can keep your car safe. If your car does get hit, wait 5-6 months because that’s when the prices drop. My insurance paid me $4k to fix it, I waited till October and only paid $1.8k.

@FlyBeee Год назад

@@siamimam2109 You are welcome. Thanks for the awesome tip about price drops in later months! I will keep that in mind. Best wishes!

@kyqorioskygo8999 Год назад

Not bar idea Both thick Comforter and yoga mats. If you can sew the comforter plastic cover so it won’t get soaked. And will last longer. The only things is will you cover your car everytime you parked at home n work. It must fit in the trunk

@huhu5676 10 месяцев назад

yeah, thats good. how thick is it?

@FlyBeee 10 месяцев назад

The mat is about a quarter of inch thick. It is made up of vinyl strands that are interlocked so it sort of makes this cushion that helps protect against hail that I have received in the last three years. If you get larget sized hail in your area, may want to get the rubber pad to go under the mat. I found one in large size and is listed in description of this video.

@dineshguntupalli4281 Год назад

keep 10 inch stones on the left and right side on top of the car on the hood , roof and trunk and cover with this kind of blanks and tie to the wheels strongly

Does it scratch the paint? This could well be genius. I'm looking for a 12'x'18' one

@FlyBeee Год назад

Thank you. I live in south and we get hail quite often and going through insurance to fix damaged vehicle is hassle so I've looked for hail protection methods for many years (including this: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-a0QdfyGIFHY.html , lol). The four criteria I show in this video and using the vinyl mat has turned out to be the winning solution for now - as least for me. Good Q about paint. From counter 5:40 of this video you can see how paint looks - this is after using this method frequently for almost three years but the paint on my vehicle is not scratched (or at least I can't see any scratches). I unfold this mat (counter 2:10) and then fold it back when the whole thing is still on my car. Makes it easier to deploy and unwrap anywhere I am at. The mat is made of vinyl stands knitted together - this criss-cross knitting creates a sort of cushion that helps absorb the impact of hail but due to holes in knitted mat the dust in dust-storm passes through and deposits on the vehicle. If you get dust storm followed by rain/hail , unfold the mat while it is still on vehicle and don't drag it on vehicle to protect paint. I hope this helps. Best wishes!

I would assume if it’s raining that would prevent deeper dry scratches. Not saying it wouldn’t scratch but possibly not noticeable from a distance

It's $109 , the same cost as a hail mat for a car. I needed something cheaper.

@FlyBeee Год назад

Looks like the prices have shot up recently - they typically do over summer months but this is quite a large increase. Walmart and many other retailers are out of stock for this mat. BUT, northern tool shows inventory at old prices! check them out. (northernTool.com) Best wishes

@masteroogvvay Год назад

Are you sure that works? That's so unbelievably thin...

@FlyBeee Год назад

I have used it personally for more than two years and the video is of actual hail storm with the size of hail you see in video. I have had no issues. the vinyl mat is made of vinyl strings intertwined which creates a bit of cushioning which absorbs impact from the size of hail seen in video. For large baseball size hail it would not work. This is my go to setup I still use today during spring storms.

@FlyBeee Год назад

I don't know if you tried it and it did not work, or after watching the video you feel like there is no way it will work. I have used this continuously for the last three years and will likely use it tonight also as my area is under severe hail threat. Understood that for very large hail it will not work, but in hail storms in last three years it has worked.
