Wheel trim decal through car wash?

louiey370z · 03-17-2015, 12:34 PM

So I decided to dip my z a black graphite metallizer and paint my emblems red. I will be installing red led lights on my license plate and I wanted to get this wheel trim decal on but I'm curious about what will happen if I take it to the wash? Would it unstick?

Good quality sticker stripes wouldn't peel off that easily. Mine stayed in place throughout multiple car washes.
The only issue is they get damaged when changing out the tires.

Thanks for your response. I messaged and asked them and they said its waterproof, however they have not tested it through a car washer.

Don't take it to the car wash. Problem solved.

Hand washing is the only way to go.

I used to hand wash my car myself, but my car gets dirty fast for some reason and I don't have that much time to hand wash my car about 3-4 times a week give or take.
