Dust cover for my dust cover?

I know the title sounds dumb but I just purchased a basically brand new condition Pioneer PL-90 vintage turntable. Even the acrylic dust cover is like brand new. I'm trying to keep it that way. I want to keep dust from ever getting on the acrylic. I know I could just throw a microfiber towel over it or something when I'm not using it but I would like something that looks a little more professional. What would be the kindest material to come in contact with the acrylic without leaving any scratches whatsoever? Would love to buy a pre-made rectangular cover that fits but this thing is huge. Approximately 24 in by 17 in by 8. So far I can't find anything pre-made even close to this 24-in length. Ideas? Thanks

I've used silks for 45 years, some are 75 years old. They don't hold water they don't mold, they don't hold dust. Because they don't hold dust, they don't scratch anything. I have some that are fitted to pretty large speakers too. 

When it's extra dusty by the end of the summer, I leave them on while playing. I just expose the face plates.

BTW I change for the seasons. I just wash them in Woolite and a 5 gallon bucket. Block and let dry.
