How do I care for my vinyl tonneau cover? |
| |
The vinyl fabric on your tonneau cover can be cleaned
with mild soap and water, and may be hand washed or safely cleaned in
the car wash of your choice. Thoroughly rinse tonneau cover to remove any soap
residue. Vinyl cover can be treated with any vinyl protectants made for
tonneau covers. Never clean tonneau cover with petroleum or citrus-based products,
and avoid silicone based protectant products.

How can I improve the seal of my tonneau cover? |
| |
Although no tonneau cover is completely waterproof,
the TruXedo® Tonneau Cover will help to keep rain, snow, and dust
out of the bed of your truck. Since different types of bed liners and
bed rails may affect how the tonneau cover fits at the front of the bed, each
kit includes two small pieces of weather seal. This weather seal can then
be fitted into the front corners of the truck bed, further helping to
keep elements out of the bed.

| |
Yes! The unique inside mount design of the TruXedo®

caps and tool boxes.

How do I adjust the tension on my tonneau cover? |
| |
The TruXedo®
Tonneau Cover has automatic tension control. There are two spring loaded
steel plungers at the front of the bed that maintain constant tension
on the front header, allowing the tonneau cover to stay tight in any weather.
Initially, you need to set the tension. This should be done during the
warmest part of the day by closing the tonneau cover, releasing the Velcro™
fasteners from both sides near the cab, and checking compression of the
spring plungers against the front header. Roll cover open to make adjustments.
Repeat until satisfactory tension is achieved.
