Will it damage the paint?

Can a 7hp pressure washer damage the paint on a car? Better safe than sorry!

It all depends on the nozzle you use and how close you are. With the wrong nozzle and being real close it can damage the paint. But you can do it safely. Just like the quarter car wash down the street.

Of course, the condition of the paint has a lot to do with it too...

I definitely agree. Depends on the usage of nozzle. Choose the right nozzle for your car.

I have a friend who used his 3000psi to wash his car, He got a little too close, and it took off his pin striping. I told him that might happen if he got too close. If you use a pressure washer, just don't get too close. Like someone already said its just like the car wash down the street, if your careful.
