Is there a way to keep morning dew off my car?
There's always dew on my car in the morning, and while I know it's natural, I've heard it can damage the paint. I can't afford much in the way of repairs right now, so is there any way to keep the dew off my car?

“Morning dew can definitely be frustrating for car owners. Your two best options for keeping it off are using a car cover or keeping your vehicle garaged.
You’re right that it can damage cars—while morning dew may seem harmless, it can become alkaline, which can damage the paint of your car. When this happens, a new
paint job
is an expensive venture. However, your
comprehensive coverage
may cover this type of damage, so consider calling your insurance company if you notice extensive damage from dew.If you don’t have comprehensive coverage, and if you’re worried about the dew, it might be a good time to add it to your policy. If you want to get it quickly while making sure you’re getting the best price, your best bet is using the
Jerry
app—we’ll get you customized quotes from multiple providers so all you have to do is pick the plan that works the best for you. That way, all you need to focus on is keeping your car covered or locked up, and we’ll do the rest!Happy insurance shopping and drive safely!”
