Don’t go through soft cloth car washes only touch less. Period. This is my rule on all vehicles unless between the frigid temps & outrageous salt/sand thrown down on the roads my truck gets to the point where even $10 worth of high pressure soap @ the self serve bay doesn’t clean it off. Only took TWO times for a) my swarf works plate to get banged & shifted (easily fixable) & b) for the rappy graphics FORD American flag lettering to start getting “peeled” off by the spinning brushes.
all set
I know when I drop off my truck to get a wax @ local shop I use for oil change/tire rotations they put it through an auto soft cloth wash & being the OCD nut I am, I specifically remove the front plate & put blue painters tape on the edges of the stickers lol!!!
I totally agree now, gotta live and learn
