A Startup Trying to Help Car Dealers Weather Hails...
Foam would suck up water unfortunately. It'd almost have to be something that was waterproof, dried quickly, and could be stored compactly.

Closed-cell foam is designed to prevent this problem, but at the cost of being stiffer and heavier.
You made a good point, anyway. Foam could absorb water, and air, and get dirty, and smell bad.

If it was low-cost enough, I could imagine it lasting a few months at least! I don't know if hail is a year-round problem or not however
