Never enough time in the day for me. Hate going to the wash, but if I do. I use Sky Carwash. They are $$, but do a top shelf job.

Arrow

I had the same problem and used Gorilla glue for a permanent fix. It worked very well.

My car has been through the full service wash about 100 times and my only complaint is they always smack the rear wiper out of adjustment. I've taken to using masking tape to hold the wiper in position while going through the wash.

Yea they did do that. I don't like the fact they put scotch tape on the paint tho.
