I've always wondered this to how do you wash it in general?

Holds up fine, at least from my experience. I have a lot more edges that could catch and pull off too, but to date, never had an issue with car washing.

Automatic car washes tend to shorten the overall life span of a vehicle wrap. I don't take my regular car through them since I used to detail for a living.

It's not so much the water jets, it's the heat generated by the fast spinning brush-thingies. It will also dull it.

But that's only after repeated use on a fleet vehicle. I've seen other cars hold up just fine.

I think it looks at you, shakes its head, and walks away.
