Keep your folding pop-up camper protected year-round with the CarCover Gold Shield 5L -- a heavy-duty, breathable cover engineered for full-season outdoor storage. Built with a five-layer top panel and three-layer sides, it blocks UV rays, rain, snow, ice, bird droppings, tree sap, and dirt while actively venting moisture so your camper's finish stays clean and mold-free under the cover.
Pop-up campers sit low and wide, which means rain pools on top and wind catches the sides. The Gold Shield 5L is built specifically for this profile -- the extended top layer wraps downward over all four sides, the slip-seam design hugs the RV's contours to reduce wind lift, and the adjustable buckle system keeps the cover locked down without damaging the camper's skin or decals.
The five-ply top panel combines four layers of polypropylene PLUS fabric with one micro-porous film layer. The three-ply sides use two polypropylene PLUS layers and one micro-porous film. That film is the key: it is water-resistant from the outside but vapor-permeable from the inside, so trapped humidity and condensation can escape instead of sitting against canvas or fiberglass for months.
Four polypropylene PLUS layers plus one micro-porous film layer -- the thickest section of the cover, facing the harshest weather.
Two polypropylene PLUS layers plus micro-porous film. Lighter than the top but still fully weather-resistant and breathable.
Weighted buckles cinch the cover snug against the camper body. Eliminates slack and prevents the billowing that tears lesser covers apart in wind.
Pre-sewn elastic at front and rear corners pulls the cover flush to the camper profile for a gap-free fit that won't let rain sneak underneath.
Installation is tool-free. Unfold the cover over the camper, pull the elastic hems over the front and rear corners, then tighten the adjustable buckle straps from the outside. The slip-seam design conforms to the camper's shape rather than creating flat panels that catch wind. Double-line stitching at all seam junctions reinforces the areas most likely to see stress during installation and during high-wind storage.
This specific size -- 5FC-1416 -- is sized and shaped for folding pop-up campers with an overall length of 14 to 16 feet. The cover's stated dimensions are 16.5 ft long x 7.17 ft wide x 3.75 ft tall, providing adequate overhang at all edges to shed rain away from the undercarriage.
Between seasons, the cover folds down into the included storage bag -- a simple way to keep the cover clean, compact, and ready for the next deployment. A patch kit is also included so minor tears or punctures from sharp edges or branches can be repaired in the field without needing a full cover replacement.
The Gold Shield 5L carries a Lifetime Manufacturer Warranty against defects in materials and workmanship -- an indicator of CarCover's confidence in this product's long-term durability.
You can wash the cover by hand or in a washing machine. For hand washing, install the cover on your RV, rinse it with a hose, then use a cloth and multi-purpose cleaner to scrub. Rinse again and either towel dry or let it air dry.
For machine washing, use the largest machine available, set it to gentle mode, and wash with mild powder detergent in cold water—avoid bleach and fabric softeners. Rinse the cover twice to remove all detergent, and always air dry.
