    Wash with or without antennae?

    I just picked up my CVPI and it's got a couple antennae on top - not sure if I should take off the antennae before getting it washed? Any suggestions?

    I guess it depends on the size or style of antenna. I have a 10 inch or so black one on my back window, that i keep on when i wash it. However, it also bends up and down, it really couldn't get damaged. I would imagine you would be ok, but i can't say for sure.

    All depend how long the antenna is and if you take the car to those carwash the you drive in. But if you wash your car yourself i wont take them out.

    I wash Mine Myself I had a friend who's car got scratched up bad from one of the drive thru types .if you use the spray and wash always blast the brush before you use it so the last person who scrubbed their tires dirt won't be scrubbed into your paint

    Good suggestion on blasting the brush before using it. I've seem some of the places and things that people have used the brush.

    If you go to a brushless one, you'll be fine.

    I have a mag mounted antenna and an antenna stuck on my roof, have had it washed multiple times no issues. Should be good to go.
