I had 3M on my last car and did with no problems. But make sure to make sure that it is 100% dried and cured.

I dunno why you'd run your car through one of those... Hope you didn't spend any money on wax/sealant, because it will be stripped off. Not to mention your rubber moldings drying out.

I'd rather just wait until I have time to wash before I'd run my car through an acid bath. That's just me, though.

this.


If you are asking if the xpel will come off from higher pressure sprays, not it should not.
