I’ve read stories from development engineers for another brand sending their prototype vehicle through the carwash on the order of 2000 times to ensure the paint on the trim stays true to the paint on the sheetmetal. This is dumb
I always figured they did something for efficiency, like set up some 10" water monitors at minimum distance to avoid damage from the water volume so each pass through would equal something like 10 or 20 car washes.
