Hi Bruce,
I just read a post from a lister in Southern Cal who had poor luck with the
Technalon, allow me to add a different perspective. Here on the Wet Coast
of the Great Green North our major weather element is water, the Technalon
has stood up well to the elements. My TC is inside in the real winter but
from early spring till late fall she's out in the weather for most of the
time and has been covered with a Technalon cover for the past four years.
Other than dirt and a tear (induced by yours truely , who's brain was
elsewhere at the time) it's in very good shape. It still repels most of the
water and does a pretty good job of protecting. The GT has only a thin
cotton cover for protection and I've never had any other kind, so I have no
point of reference, but I'm pleased witht the Technalon so far.
YMMV,
