Display MoreHey,
i'm going to put my Kar in a hangar which unfortunately has plenty of dust.
Unfortunately we do not have as many possibilities to store our cars as you have in the States.
I was thinking about buying a "capsule" for the car to protect it from dust and humidity.
Does anyone have experience with such capsules?
I have several customers of mine that use them successfully.

I have one and absolutely love it, it's really saved all my natural metal parts, really cut down on flash rust. It was great to have while I was restoring parts too, I could blast them and then put them inside the capsule and it would keep them from quickly rusting sitting around... I did also add a small dehumidifier in the area which also adds some additional protection and helps as well. I went ahead and got the big dog the "Showcase" model because I didn't want to deal with the hassle of getting the car in and out of it, I liked the fact it's free standing and I can just open the back and drive in and out of it. See attached photos. I wish I had got this a long time ago and with all the money I've put into the car it was a small investment for keeping it safe...

Jason, I like your free standing capsule as the only ones I have seen are the ones where the air blower keeps the capsule inflated. Who makes the one that you have?

Looks like it's blown up. The one i chose has some light weight bars (like the ones you use on a tent) to support it.
And thanks Jason, thats really helpful.

It's still made by Car Capsule, here's a link to the site.

It has a blower that hooks up to it and besides circulating air in the unit, it also has an attachment to keep the over all unit full of air, so if it ever gets low, it automatically starts filling it until the pressure is back to normal. I really like this because if I ever need to work on the car in the garage, it comes down, folds up and goes back up really easily. I give this product two thumbs up for sure and well worth the money in the long run.
