California Car Cover Co. sells a 4 layer cover, custom made to fit your car. It is called Stormweave and will probably cost between $250 - $300. It will cushion against very small hail, but no car cover alone will protect against larger hail stones.
In the past I showed antique cars during the summer in Wis. and Ill. and was subjected several times to intense storms. I always carried 2 old bed comforters to put on top of the car, held in place under the cover. I may have had a couple of soggy wet blankets when the storm was over, but I never had a dent. Unfortunately not so for some my fellow car buffs using just a cover.
