Recently moved to a new apartment which does not have any form of shade unlike d old one and I can't start constructing a carport for a landlord who might decide he wants to give his house to his nephew and give me quit notice d next month.
Recently noticed something funny,started d car one hot afternoon 2 days after I used it last and d tachometer started from 700RPM unlike the usual a little above 1000RPM meaning that this Abuja sun has already warmed d car for men,lol.Same day,I also noticed outside temperature was 108 degree farenheit.
Hardly drive d car during d day cos workplace is less than 2 minutes walk from my gate.
Make una epp a brother with suggestions cos I no wan do any unnecessary repairs in this recession cos I sure say if na Camry muscle,d dashboard for don melt since.
It's a W204 C class.

So na this be ur problem tongue dnt worry the rain is almost here

To protect your car, from the heat burnt, there is this material call silicone polish, it is stable up to 295 degree, if used on the body of a car or on the dash board, it reflect the sun rays thereby reducing the direct heat on the surface.
look for car wash or dash board polish with silicone polish.

Dashboard spray helps too.

The cartons of your home appliances like deep freezers, washer and gas oven should not be discarded, u can use them to cover the screen and roof of your cars, thank me later


What if children light fire on it.
What if it is windy

Mehn,d sun in Abuja currently is something else.
The thing acts like it wants to drill a hole in your head.

RZArecta:
There's this thing like an aluminium foil mat sold by roadside hawkers (those guys who sell wipers, car mats etc), you stick it on your windscreen from inside when parking your car in the sun for extended periods.
You can temporarily use thick cardboard boxes, wedging them in place with the windshield wipers cool
thanks boss.

Go and buy "car cover" and cover the entire car. It is just N2500.
Haa,will this serve?
I'm talking about protection from heat oo not dust.

Car covers are generally for dust. For the sun, after about 10min the temperature penetrates right through.

A reflective mat dash cover which is usually placed over the dashboard from inside the car would help
More like it bro.

If your compound is safe, when you park your car, reduce all the four windows for cross ventilation. The heat in the car need to escape.
Was also considering this but also afraid of accumulation of dust inside d car.
