It looks like it has had an automatic car wash or two, but not as bad as most black paint I see. I plan on polishing it at some point.
After years of reading here, I was on the alert when the dealer offered to gas up and wash the red LaCrosse before I took delivery. I said, "Car wash? What sort of place?"
"Oh, the automatic car wash on the boulevard."
"Never mind. Just fill her up; that'll be fine."
I know 90% of people see no harm in using automatic car washes, so when the dealer asks if I would like a complimentary wash they probably think they are doing me a grand favor. I just cringe inside and say no thanks. They have done it without asking on both of our cars, it burns me up. All the work I put in to keep the finish in good shape goes out the door with one automatic car wash.
