First time through a car wash with the premium soft top

[BowlofSoup]

Touchless car wash. Was I nervous? Yes. Was it fine? Yes. My toddler son wasn't a fan but he'll get used to it haha.

I was on the fence about it as well. No problems whatsoever. Well, except for all the soap in the bed that doesn’t get rinsed out.

I have done both touchless and touch... I don't use the dryer though. So far, so good.

Why would you be nervous about a touch less car wash are you a new Jeep owner ?

Think it is more of a soft top worry...at least for me it is.

The detergents the touchless car washes use, at least in my area did some horrible things to soft tops in my experience. I hand wash in the months where that's possible and have the luxury of a hard top to switch to for the winter.

My neighbour and I got JKs at roughly the same time with soft tops. She did touchless nearly exclusively and her top looked much worse than mine after even a year. Just my experience.

Definitely something I'll watch for, thanks. Hopefully that's not the case for the "premium soft top". It's only for the winter months that I'm using the carwash
