How do I clean my covers?

It is very simple to clean your covers! Simply use a garden hose to rinse off the cover. This will clean off the dust, dirt, and other particles. For a more thorough cleaning, a sponge or soft bristle brush can be used with mild soap and water. Avoid using harsh detergents, chemicals such as bleach and abrasive brushes, and cleaning pads which can damage the surface of the fabric and reduce the water-resistant coating of the cover. Please note that most of our covers have a protective water repellent/UV treatment coating, therefore, excessive cleaning will reduce the effectiveness of the treatment coating. Machine washing of our covers should be avoided.

 

How do I know what size cover I need to buy?

The best indicator of the fit would be comparing your dimensions with that of our covers. This applies to all of our covers. Please note that for patio table and chair sets, we suggest you measure both your table and chairs by the total length, width, and height and then compare those dimensions to the dimensions of our covers. We have a variety of size charts available to help you choose the right size. The size charts can be viewed from any of our web pages on the right side (except in the checkout cart screen), there is a banner titled “Sizing Charts”. Simply click on that banner and choose what type of cover you are looking for. If you cannot find your item on our size chart or have any questions about sizing, please feel free to call us at 949-954-0898.

 

What is the difference between an enclosure and a cover?

An enclosure is for when the golf cart is in use (driving). A cover is for storage purposes.

 

What if I have a 4 passenger golf cart with a shorter roof?

If you have a 4-passenger golf cart but the roof is short (the roof does not cover the backbench), then this golf cart driving enclosure and golf cart storage cover are specifically designed for this size. Please make sure you purchase the 4-passenger with the shorter roof (fits roof with length up to 60-inch) enclosure and cover.

 

What if I have the year 2009 or newer Yamaha Drive golf cart?

If you have the year 2009 or newer Yamaha Drive (YDR) golf cart, then we have a specific 2 passenger golf cart driving enclosure made for that type of golf cart, you can find the link here.

 

Do your patio table and chair covers come with a hole for the umbrella?

Yes, most of our patio tables set covers feature a unique center cap for the umbrella. There is a removable center cap that has Velcro to secure on/off. You have the option of removing the center cap for umbrella if you have a patio umbrella that you want to keep in the table. We also sell a patio umbrella cover that works to protect your umbrella and can easily be installed with our patio table set covers. If you don’t have an umbrella, or do not wish to store your umbrella in the patio table, just leave the center cap on and place the cover over your table and chair set. This is a unique feature only available at Formosa Covers!
