Winch Cover

[Clifford33]

If you're using the cover for sun protection, why not just leave it since it's doing its job of protecting the winch. I have the same winch and cover. My Jeep is outside a lot and the cover hasn't faded at all hardly. However, I only use the cover in the Winter, but we still get quite a bit of sun here in CO. That Aerospace 303 stuff I've heard works well to protect vinyl/plastic.

But, there's always this option too:

Hahahaha I like that a lot Haha man great idea rough country

Just put several heavy coats on the holes. It'll be good to go..haha.

In high school a buddy had a camero with white vinyl interior. He repainted the whole inside with black vinyl/upholstry paint. Didn't look too bad and never got hard or flaked off. I was really skeptical.

If I tried spraying that stuff on myself in the mirror I'd end up looking like the wolfman.

I found a leather...probably fake leather, one on Amazon. Search winch cover by El Jefe. I'm going to get one when I get a winch. Only $20.

I got this one ^^^^^. Super cheap and fits fine. Hasn't faded over the last few months, but if and when it does, it's cheap enough to swap out if you want. Just hide the dumb looking El Jefe logo!

I have this one and it hasn’t faded at all and it’s waterproof. I like it. It was only $20.

You need the green one for that. Black and blue won’t work.

I find the most least expensive ones I can on Amazon and just let them fade. Plus the city I live in is so crazy with crime these days, if I lose a thirteen dollar cover it’s not a huge deal.

I was thinking this or a bottle of Rit dye, bucket of water, and a cup of salt.

I've never used a cover. I just lube my cable a couple times a year when I let the winch cable out to be all OCD about how nicely its spooled. Is there any benefit to it, if i'm a cheap ass and use steel cable? Or just mostly for the synthetic rope?

It’s mostly for synthetic rope since it is sensitive to uv rays and it keeps it clean from any road grit/grime

Cool! Never heard of this one.

In my case it's the winch cover, hi-lift jack and roller cage pads that have been taking a beating from the Sun.

I use the 303 Protectant but it only seems to work on the soft top material, which still looks as new (except for some stains that built up over the years of trail rides).

I've been looking for a week now for a good cover. I finally just ordered the El Jefe one on Amazon. I'll provide a review once I get it, my winch and bumper installed.
