Does covering a car with a car cover in rainy weather have any impact?

It's okay to cover a car with a car cover in rainy weather, but it's not good for the car. Here are the relevant details: 1. The purpose of a car cover: To avoid scratches on the car paint during long-term parking. It also protects against corrosion from insect residues, tree sap, acid rain, etc.; it is not meant for rain protection, and the car paint itself is not afraid of water. Heavy rain can even help wash the car. 2. Additional information: The car paint surface can suffer from corrosion, dampness, and mold. In many areas, pollution is widespread, and some places experience severe pollution, where the rain is mostly acid rain. Therefore, rain exposes the car paint directly to acid rain, which can corrode the paint, leading to water stains, oxidation, and even cracking. Compared to sunny days, the car interior is more prone to dampness and mold after rain. Additionally, rainwater can seep into the car body seams during rainy weather, causing metal parts to rust and corrode. Therefore, after the rain stops, accumulated moisture should be removed as soon as possible to prevent mold and other issues.
