Paint protection film automatic car wash is not recommended because the film can move away from its place. The automatic washing system is not designed to clean such surfaces. You must allow at least seven days for the film to cure completely after its installation on the car body. Do not agitate or wash the surface during this period. The protective film is an excellent way to protect the surface of your vehicle body. It protects the vehicle body from abrasive debris and harsh weather elements. However, the top surface of the film does not have any protection from dirt and dust. It requires cleaning after it becomes dirty.
Make sure you inform the car washing technician beforehand about the film on the body. The best option in such a condition is to use a touchless washing system. You can go for high pressure washing or use waterless washing solutions. Use soaps specially formulated for this purpose. Avoid abrasive materials and other cleaning options that can agitate, damage or displace the film. Appropriate washing technique will help you keep the protective film intact and still get a good car wash.
