Traveling Protec Touring Cover

Good afternoon another question the protec touring cover is this worth buying? The adhesive press studs do they look odd, stuck to the front and if you have to take them off are they a problem? Are they worth putting on as they do look like they will protect the van when traveling.

We had the 2004 Troll 540 but looking at the new 540's things have moved on and I do like the look of the new ones.

Thank you Morphy

I wouldn't tow without mine, as well as protecting the front from stone chips etc., your van arrives nice and clean on site without the usual detritus, flies, and so on...

I know most vans have "stone guards" but even these deteriorate once the lacquer is damaged from inbound projectiles.

We just used the white poppers that came with it. We stopped noticing them after a while.

Yes, the poppers work well. They can be easily removed using the "hairdryer and credit card" method.

Another thumbs-up for the Protec Touring Cover. I've got used to seeing the fastener studs, just accept that they are there.

Hi, I'm thinking of getting one for our Triton. Do you know how long it takes to make/send? They give a rough idea on their website of about a month. I wondered how accurate this was. I also need to look into shipping to Spain. I fear that it might be a bit pricey... and the last time I ordered something from outside of Spain it got held up in customs and I had to pay a relative fortune to get it delivered.

Totoro, I think they have them in stock? when we ordered the caravan I am sure they said you don't need to order as they have them in. The telephone number if you ring from the UK of course you will either have to add or subtract/alter for your number from Spain is 01539 624141. No idea on postage but they will help you with that I would have thought.

Good luck Morphy (Bev & Steve)
