    no it shouldn't, the wax is water proof so the water will just bead off.

    Depending on the detergent in the wash, will depend on if it has any strong cleaning agents - assuming it's not truckwash, type washer, you won't strip the wax right away - but after a few washes, you'll loose some of the protection.
