    I have the factory tri-fold hard tonneau cover on my new 2016 Tacoma TRD Sport. Is there some sort of adjustment that can be made so the cover will seal the bed? The drivers side front corner is not sealed. It sits high with a space large enough to put a finger between it and the bed. Needless to say a trip through the car wash flooded the bed.

    Second question, what are those of you with this cover using to protect it and keep it from fading in the sun.

    Protectant 303 and cleaner seem to be the best folks talk about. I use it, better than Armor All by a long shot. Good for dash and stuff like that too.

    Thanks. I'll have to look for it around here, I don't remember seeing that brand name in the store. I can always order it off the web somewhere though.

    Advance auto parts has a house brand spray on tire cleaner that doesn't work for beans, buuuuut.....it works very well as a protectant on hard plastics. We've been using it in my shop for about 3 years, because.....my lead tech in his infinite wisdom bought a case of it on sale when I was on vacation one time, and they wouldn't take it back since it was on sale. We use it on everything exterior black plastic after we detail, and I can say that after 3 years, it still looks good. It's called Tire Shine and it's part #A23000.

    Have you found any way to make adjustments on the latch and pin to make it tighter? Mine has way to much play in it and i would love to tighten it down some.
