Default Wash & Rick's Badges.... will they survive ???

I have recently purchased the wheeel badges and the hood & trunk badges .....

Well vinter is around the corner and the hardtop will soon be back on my S2000 which means that I will start machine wash my car again (Yes, I know a lot of you guys would never do that ).

My questions is does anybody have any experience in what brushes does to these badges ????

Any information about soft brushes and machine wash brushes would be really nice.

Thanks

soft brushes would do nothing... the badges are just like any other badge or other part of the car. treat them the same way you would treat the H badges- except that the ricks badges are much easier to clean and to clean around!

Thanks wanabe !!

Sounds good, will put them on next weekend when I have found a heated garage with 70 degrees F. Which is a bit hard here in Scandinavia where it is getting close to the freezing point

When you feel the badges at room temperature they feel so soft that you get the idea that a brush would scratch it very easily... just wanted to be sure

no scratches on mine and they have been on the car for two years now. i use a wash mitt instead of a brush, but a brush that is soft enough for the paint would be fine on the badges-
