Can a Truck Bed Cover Go Through a Car Wash?

The answer is yes, but there are some precautions you should take.

Truck bed covers are designed to protect the cargo in your truck bed from the elements, so they should be able to withstand some water and soap. However, it’s important to be aware that some car washes are more aggressive than others.

If you plan to take your truck bed cover through a car wash, it’s important to check the type of cleaning system being used. Some car washes have spinning brushes that can potentially damage the paint or finish on your truck bed cover. If this is the case, it’s best to avoid taking your truck bed cover through a car wash with these types of cleaning systems.

Another thing to consider is that if you do take your truck bed cover through the car wash, you should use a gentle setting and make sure that the pressure is not too high. High pressure could cause damage to the materials used in the construction of your truck bed cover. It’s also important to make sure that any soap used in the car wash is specifically designed for use on vehicles.

Finally, if you do decide to take your truck bed cover through a car wash, it’s important to make sure that it’s completely dry before driving away. This will help prevent any water or soap residue from damaging your vehicle or cargo.

Conclusion:

In conclusion, yes it is possible for a truck bed cover to go through a car wash but precautions should be taken when doing so. Be sure to check what type of cleaning system is being used and use gentle settings when washing with soap designed for vehicles. Finally, make sure that the truck bed cover is completely dry before driving away.
