Guys - can anyone confirm how well does the flag stick? Will it fall when washing at a car wash, due to water pressure?

Manual that came with flag states that washing the car through a car would be a problem. It also states that it is a temporary item?

Automatic wash of any car is a problem, regardless of the flag

I meant hand car wash. Not taken my Mazda in 3 years to an auto one, and not planning on the Volvo either.
But even on hand car washes, the pressure washers are quite a force to deal with.

Makes you wonder what glue they use for badges etc

I applied ceramic coating to mine, so basically I am wiping the dust once a week by hand. I believe it will fall after a year or so, but hey it cost me few dollars on AliExpress and it takes 5 minutes to apply

The bonnet rubber flag (again).
If anyone is looking to replace a worn rubber bonnet flag…just bought a pack of 5 from a UK supplier on Etsy for £6.

The original is starting to fade after 3 years. Still have the XC40 T5, 24k miles and still delighted with it.
