     Hello All,
      My understanding is this.
     White reflects more vidible light and the longer
    wavelength infra-red light(heat).
      Darh colors (dark blue, black) absorb the
    ultra-violet better, reducing the chance of
    getting a sunburn even while under the canvas.

      Therefure the ideal cover is simple. A white
    outer layer and a dark blue or black inner layer.

      I SAID IDEAL, not cheap!
