Protecting fresh paint

Hello. I may be posting in the wrong area, if so, please forgive me. I recently had my 83 Elco painted and unfortunately I don't have a garage. I'm looking for a good outdoor car cover to protect it from the elements, pollen, bird doo, etc. I live in east TN so the sun beats down in the summer as well. Any recommendations? Huge thanks in advance.

I've used California Car Covers for many years. Several different fabrics and materials to choose from. You might want one for the pollen months and a different one for the sunny summer months.

Thank you! I've heard good things about CCC. Any particular cover from them you would recommend?
I use the Reflectect Outdoor Custom Fit Car Cover. More to protect the interior from the blazing Fla sun than the paint. The thing I like about the Reflectect material is that it is very lightweight and does a good job of keeping out the pollen (I live in a wooded area), leaves, bird droppings. And it is reasonably priced. Make sure to get the custom fit as it will stay in place during all but the more sever winds.
