I would like to make a cover for the canopy to put on while it's in
the trailer. *I've seen cloth that is cotton-like on the outside, but
soft on the inside. *Anybody have a name handy on this material that
would be the ideal cloth to use when sewing a cover?


I know your looking for DIY recommendations, but I can't recommend
these covers enough: http://www.easycanopycovers.com/ Easy on/off,
unmatched at keeping heat out, can open/close canopy with it on and
leave it there till launch where it can be self-extracted while
buckled/chute'd, look super cool etc...

I leave mine on my canopy when it's in it's trailer, as long as I'm
not driving it of course. In motion my canopy is always nekid. I have
a Ridge Sewing cover too, and it's great, but a thick/heavy weather
cover for tying out. I try to put it on and take it off as little as
possible due to accumulative abrasion damage, but my Platinum Cap goes
on and off with little friction since it's so lightwight. Best $115
you can spend on your ship IMO.
