FAQs
What vehicles is the Covercraft UVS100 (UV10966BL) compatible with?
This specific sunscreen is designed for the 2007-2014 Cadillac Escalade/ESV/EXT, 2007-2013 Chevrolet Avalanche, 2007-2013 Chevrolet Silverado/GMC Sierra 1500 (2007 New Body Only), and 2007-2014 Chevrolet Silverado/GMC Sierra 2500/3500.
How do I clean the UVS100 Sunscreen?
Clean the sunscreen by wiping it with a damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals to maintain the material's integrity.
Will this sunscreen protect my dashboard from cracking?
Yes, by blocking harmful UV rays and reducing interior temperatures, it significantly helps prevent fading, cracking, and other sun-related damage to your dashboard and interior components.
Is it difficult to store the sunscreen when not in use?
No, the sunscreen is designed to be easily foldable and stored away when not in use. It can be tucked into a door pocket or between seats.
Does the sunscreen completely block the sun?
The custom fit design minimizes gaps, and the multi-layer construction is highly effective at blocking UV rays and reducing heat. However, minor light may still penetrate at the very edges depending on installation.
What is the difference between the Blue Metallic (UV10966BL) and Silver (UV10966SV) versions?
The primary difference is the color and exterior finish. Both offer the same protective features and custom fit. The choice between colors is typically a matter of aesthetic preference.
Troubleshooting
Sunscreen doesn't fit perfectly.
Ensure you have the correct model number for your specific vehicle year, make, and trim. Double-check the compatibility list. If the fit is still slightly off, ensure it's oriented correctly and try to press it firmly into place against the windshield edges.
Sunscreen is difficult to fold.
The sunscreen may require a few uses to become more pliable. Fold it by bringing the two sides towards each other, then folding it in half. Store it in a relatively flat space when not in use.
Excessive heat still enters the vehicle.
Verify that the sunscreen is fully covering the windshield with no significant gaps. Ensure the correct model is being used, as a universal shade will not offer the same level of protection. Check that the foam core is intact and not damaged.
