2025 Car Wash Experience

[SM2535]

For those of you with 2025 models, how has the paint stood up after going through the wash?

I’ve had mine since January, and only done touch-free washes since my 2022 got dinged up with a normal wash. Curious if the paint on the new models is more durable than the previous generation.

Why would you think the paint is any different whatsoever?

I use only a touch less wash and have had no issues I did not wash it until after I applied the clay bar and a hand applied paint protector and wax

I find that having a home sand blading booth provides the same results.

I take mine through a drive through car wash at least once a week and no problems

Because my color wasn’t available in 2022 for my first one?

Eruption green has been around for a couple years now. It's the same as any other fords, except the tri coats available.

2024 ionic silver xlt. Used Turtle wax ceramic spray on right after I bought it a year ago. Paint is perfect, none of those angel hair scratches you see on my black denali. Great product

The paint on our 23 still looks new but I hand wash with dishsoap and use pastewax.

I do touch-less or by hand in my driveway. Though I find touch-less doesn’t get much off.

Oh boy, the anti-dish soap bunch are foaming.

Yup,prepared! Lol. And the paint on my 16 year old ram,in Michigan it's entire life still looks new after washing with dishsoap and waxing with paste wax, typically once or twice a year.
