OMG! Don't take it to a car wash!!!! NEVER EVER! If you take it to a car wash where you wash it by hand. COOL just don't use their brushs. Guys scrub out the pick up bed and 4 wheelers with them. Take your own sponge or rags to wash and clean rags or old towels to dry it.

UGHHH too late. Everything looks okay.... I just won't in the future. Got my oil and filter changed, radiator coolant flushed, and flushed and recharged the AC system because it was apparently operating at dangerously high compression levels.

Nothing wrong with the touchless car washes it's nothing more than pressure washing it, doesn't do the best job but it works, now the kind that have the big flappy rollers are the ones to avoid!
Self serve car washes are good if you bring a bucket and hand wash it, never use the brush!
