I think you are out thinking this. Folks who art are too lazy to wash their own car are also too lazy to walk around the back of the car to take the tape off.

It means your paint looks like shite because you're to cheap, or lazy, to put a good hand wash/polish/wax on your ride.

I gotta ask- wtf does the tape do? I get my car washed here in Florida every couple of weeks, but they never put tape on it……

I think it’s to prevent the rear wiper from turning on and getting caught on something or damaged in the car wash.

You finally figured this out? And that’s your takeaway?

Bro this has been a car wash practice for about 15 years now for all cars with rear wipers.

No. It's a lazy thing. It shows who is too lazy to stop and use the vacuums or simply remove the tape after the wash
I have a monthly pass and go through all the time. I never go back on the street with the tape.

I figured it out as well, they’re too stupid to take it off…

That's embarrassing.

I'm proud of my dirty-assed cars. With little kids, I see zero purpose in anything but making sure paint doesn't get destroyed (did that via tree sap on my last trade-in; they didn't care).

I guess my dirty shite is my own status symbol. But at least it isn't something I proactively do.

Forget it’s there?

Cause when I see that, I automatically think “wow, they are living the good life” in their Toyota RAV4.
