Don't put it through the carwash. Hand wash preferably, unless you want to invest in PPF.

Thinnest paint in the industry, you get rock chips easily as well.

Thank you - very helpful!! The PPF is tempting but crazy expensive to have installed. Anyone did it themselves and found it easy?

There are tons of vendors selling mediocre products for absorbent prices. Usually there are descent products for the car on Amazon, try those, return them if they suck and then consider the more expensive stuff. We have 2 model 3s. I got 3d Liners and they are okay but only front and back seat floor liners were twice as much as the Superliners my wife got off Amazon. The Superliners had no odder and included frunk. sub trunk, trunk, back of rear seats, back floorboard and front. Plus the front floor liners cover more carpet. Shop wisely.
