Flightline Canopy Cover

I have a Flightline Interiors canopy cover that came with an RV-7. Looks to be in great condition. I was thinking of using it when I park the plane outside for a few hours to keep the sun out. Does anyone have experience with these? It does not have a soft material inside, it looks like nylon so I'm concerned if it will scratch the canopy/windscreen. I have a Bruce cover as well but it's much heavier.

I have the Lightweight Nylon one VANs sold for years (maybe still do?) that I take in my RV-4. Ive used it at various overnight fly-ins as well as 4 days on the windy Carolina Outer Banks and it has never left any marks. I keep in clean and dry. It has 3 straps that go around the belly and holds it pretty tight, so no flapping in the wind. Super light and packable. It has no inner lining, just a single Nylon/Dacron layer.
