Will this film peel off or get damaged when you go through an automated car wash?

Jorge buenos dias, como esta, I have washed my automobile about 6 times since i have put End Dings on and to date there has been no damage or peel, however i should say this is early time Jorge and maybe we should give it a couple of months since i have only had it on for approximately 2 months thus far, I hope this assists you George have a great week.Al

I can't answer that, I haven't gone through the automated car wash with it.

I only lost one end ding to a car wash and that was after someone nicked the clear film (saving the bumper) I'm going to order another set for the front and back this time

That's an excellent question. After some bad experiences with some scratches left by drive-through car washes, I generally avoid them. Plus, I like the time to inspect my vehicle that hand washing provides. That said, my general experience with the bracket leads me to believe that it should be fine. Based on how it's mounted, if you've tightened it correctly, there's little that should directly affect it.

I believe I understand where you are coming from. The plates do not cover the entire slot that is carved out of the box. The slot is on the bottom and I believe this is why I have not any issues with rain water entering the box. I certainly would not drive through an automated car wash however. I hope this answers your concern.

I've washed several picture disks and I haven't seen any damage, but I can't guarantee that continuous washing over the years won't begin to degrade your picture disks.

Yes, you can peel it easily and it doesn't leave any residue. But, I have actually put items thru the dishwasher with the labels on, multiple times, before they started to come off on their own, in one strip.

If left in for extended amounts of time, the plastic around the slot will start to warp. I always remove mine when I am getting out of the car. It's not really permanent damage, and it depends on the set up of your cd slot and console in your car. The dust protectors made of fabric in the cd slot will get slightly deformed, but again this is not really considered damage. If I had a brand new car, I might think twice before using this product.

Hi Barbara,I bought the SKrAPr for my sister in law so don't posess the item. As for taking the film off a car window...that will totally depend on what film is on and who/how it was applied. I do not think it will scratch the glass like a razor blade but I would try it first of course.

When I went though a long extensive automatic car wash, the workers tried to tape the lashes down onto the hood of my car. When my car came out of the car wash, the tape was completely gone and the lashes were still perfectly in place with no problems at all.

Make sure you put High temp silicon sealant around all the edges and it should have no problems surviving a car wash. I had to replace one of mine due to the plug getting ripped off. I had a hard time getting it free from the oil pan.

I have had one installed for about 7 years and have never removed it for washing the vehicle. I would probably not run it through an automatic car wash too often. They will loosen and unscrew themselves if operated on and off the base very often.

It should be fine with automatic car washes. Road salt in Pennsylvania doesn't seem to harm it. Seems like a tough coating that holds up.

just clean it as you do it with regular glass use window cleaner spray it and wipe it off film holds just fine

It shouldn't peel at all. I've had mine for 2 months and it's been fine. I'd ask the manufacturer to replace it if it were me. Sorry that happened to you.

Not likely you would scratch this product. Very durable. I mean if you do scratch it, it can be recovered easily, but I think you will be surprised in the durability.Now to remove this easily, take a hair dryer and warm the carbon fiber and it will peel right off, not necessary to use hair dryer but it makes it real easy to remove.I got this on car door handles and the mirrors, still looks great after being out in the weather.

Wow, there are so many types of car washes, and I can only address the question from the standpoint of my local car wash, which is a soft flop up/down type of cleaning system. It is not the heavy roller brush type. With this qualification, I have had no problems with any damage or any type of failure of the product. I do note that the instructions mentioned that automatic car washers are not recommended.

Nothing in it that will hurt your car or the environment. It will not super sudsy as car wash usually is, but if you are not addicted to bubbles you should like the result.

No. It does not wash or scratch off easily. I use a roll of sticker paper, it is sold at craft stores, to protect mine. It is clear and ultra thin not to mention way more affordable than individual laminates.
