I agree with Bret that it is a judgment call, and dried-on gunk always has the potential to scratch your car. If you are an obsessive type, detail it 2-4 times a year, and handwash once a week or so, then the risk of light scratches may be too much for you. If on the other hand you run the wagon at high speed over gravelly back country roads and take your car to an automatic carwash regularly, then the chance of light scratches is probably acceptable. It's all about what you will be comfortable with, recognizing that its a car not a museum piece, that it will get scratched if you drive it, and that (barring a catastrophe) any light scratches can be buffed out with a RO buffer or by a pro detailer once or twice a year. Bottom line, you very well may put on some light scratches with QD, but is that ok for you, or will it drive you crazy?
