Car Washing Question
 
Should I worry about my eyelids coming off when washing my car?

I know that 3M tape is very strong and won't come off easily, but will water make the tape weak? Or can I wash my car without worrying about them?

My Sirius radio antenna never came off...but then again, that was magnetic too...

dont worry about it, 3m tape is strong enough to keep the there but i would spray direct pressure there just in case

you should be fine as long as you're a bit more gentle around them.
PLEASE tell me your'e not using one of those drive-thru car washes with the HUGE rollers / brushes.

I've used those high pressure do it yourself washed a couple times when I had no other choice. I had to spray directly on mine and they have stayed for over a year. Then again it kind of matters what 3M tape you used.

Don't high pressure that area directly and don't take it to a machine car wash and she will be flirting with you for a long time.

I would NEVER take my 8 into an automatic car wash! I always hand-wash mine.

So as long as I do not use high pressure, and if I clean them, use direct pressure, then I should be good?
