How can I stop my cat from jumping on top of my car?
I live with three cats.

From time to time some of them jump on top of my car in the garage. The problem is that the car paint gets scratched (its getting worse everyday) and a lot of cats steps (footprints) goes to the paint, so I have to wash the cars every weekend.

A fence is not a possible solution, nor blocking all garage access (it's a open space).

Any suggestions on how deal with this problem?

Cats do this to keep warm. Does she/ he mainly do this when your engine is still warm? It's probably just a type of heat source in there eyes. Try putting a sheet over your car just a plane cotton sheet so even if she does jump on it it wnt get scratched or you could not let them in the garage if they are inside cats. If they live in the garage well just try the sheet.

The only real way to stop a cat from getting on your car is to put the car in a garage. I know this answer isn't what you are looking for.

Cats are vindictive, and if they decide to mess with your car in particular, there is no amount of booby-trapping, wrapping, or protecting your car from vindictive kitty-claws.

Theoretically you could trap/export the loose kitties to the local animal shelter.
