Keep your car sufficiently waxed - this will allow small scratches to be borne by the wax instead of the paint. So easier to get back the new gleam of your car paint.
However, in my opinion, use of a car cover is a pain, and not worth the overall benefits, if your environment does not comprise of parking under trees or where branches etc will swipe your car, or pesky kids drawing stones or keys across the car...
In normal circumstances, to cover up your car for protection against normal fading is not worth it, as the side effect of scratches is equally ruinous...
You takes your chances or you takes your pains... and scratches for that matter...
