I've never worried too much about the paint on my Wrangler. Makes Jeep ownership much more fun, and it still looks great.

[QUOTE=stomachmonkey;3524378]Stay away from car washes.
QUOTE]

I was asked to invest in a car wash a while ago. In the end, I decided against it, but I learned quite a bit in the process. Bottom line, technology has changed. I have driven the Porsches through car washes several times. The new brushes are incredibly soft, and are constantly being rinsed. You are more likely to scratch your paint with a bucket on your driveway.

The one exception- Never- NEVER use a "Touchless" car wash. The only way to make a car look clean without touching it is with very harsh chemicals.
