Maybe we should make them out of Tyvek then- or have a Tyvek liner

They were very good,
but they were not water proof either. They were water resistant at best.
Regarding a "waterproof" cover. Plexiglas absorbs water which is what makes
it opaque with age. A waterproof cover will trap moisture between the cover
and the plexi. "How can it get between the "waterproof" cover and glass?"
It does. The trapped moisture cannot evaporate as easily under the
waterproof material, and is absorbed by the plexi. A "breathable" material
is best and will keep the daily condensation off and sun rays out. Talk to
any windshield manufacture and they will confirm this. A good coat of car
wax on the plexi will help keep moisture from absorbing into the plexi.
