This year's summer rain can turn into a frightening bombardment of hailstones. Although hail can vary greatly in size, it doesn't take much to damage unprotected property especially the cars. What can you do yo protect it? Today, we'll cover these questions and provide you with a few helpful tips and tricks to bolster your hail defenses
Hail can be dangerous, as sometimes these are balls not much smaller than a tennis ball. Missiles of this size can already destroy the body of a vehicle
The best way to protect it is, of course, a garage. Trouble comes when you don't have one, or you are away on vacation.
More and more people are choosing to protect their car with quilts, blankets or inflatable mattresses
We have to admit that especially the latter method works well, although the car looks a bit grotesque in this case. But better grotesque look than damaged paint
What to do when a sudden breakdown in the weather strikes during the journey itself? Experts advise, first of all, not to turn off the engine, to make sure that you can drive away if necessary and that the engine will work
Secondly, it is worth considering where we actually stopped - isn't the car where water easily accumulates?
For longer trips far from home, it's also a good idea to visit sites like Lightningmaps or have an app that shows dangerous weather events live
What are your experiences with hail? Have you ever had a dangerous adventure?
