Hi guys, i pressure wash my new white ram 2017 this weekend and I think that I make a mistake. I have an electric pressure wash 1800 psi and i tried to remove the dirt with the 15 degree angle on the nozzle. But in the instruction it said that this angle can damage paint. Do you think that I damaged the paint or the clear coat ?


thank you

Other than visual inspection it's hard to say. Unless you held the nozzle very close for an extended period of time in certain spots I wouldn't be concerned.

I use a light duty electric to clean mine up as well (well water pressure sucks!!). For washing I keep the nozzle about 2'-3' away from the surface and only go in close when cleaning wheel wells.

You'd know if you damaged the paint.... it would be missing off your truck!!!
