Dawn (or any other concentrated dish soap really) are great degreasers and can be great if you have some real bad grime on your wheels and tires. The main difference between this and specialized wheel cleaners is there is a lack of dedicated iron removers, lubricating compounds, or antiozonants for the tires. Just make sure to dress the tires to replenish some of the antiozonant that keep the rubber from deteriorating

Most wheel cleaners don’t have iron removers in them. If fact, it’s usually it’s own product because of how bad it smells. You don’t really need them anyway. A contact wash with a wheel cleaner without iron remover will get rid of most of the brake dust. If it doesn’t, iron remover won’t help. You’ll need a stronger or acid cleaner

But what does it do to your brake pads and calipers

I will most definitely try this out. I just started using a little squirt bottle with a few crops of Dawn dish detergent. It makes cleaning the screen in your car your cell phone for evening glasses crystal clear. It really works great on anything that is a touch screen. The way I do it is I spray it on a microfiber cloth and then wipe it down. The bottle itself is about 2 oz and costs under a dollar. And as far as the dawn is concerned that's the only detergent that I have used for over 40 years.

Works great for just a clean yes. But too many variables for the professional detailer better off just getting specified chemicals if you detail for a living. That way you can be safe and it’s still cost effective we’re talking Pennie’s at that point.

I also buy my dawn soap at the dollar store so I suspect it's already a slightly diluted detergent compared to the more expensive variant. But it could be my imagination. I also make damn sure it's a cloudy to almost drizzle day to do this so the sun isn't drying the soap on the car. Although nice thing if your soap does dry, a spray of water instantly makes it soapy again. After 2 bucket hand washing the car, I spray the car off and spray the remaining soapy water in the bottle over the panel before I clay bar. It's much cheaper than constantly spraying detail spray. Can you tell I am a cheap bastard? Lol. But don't worry, I do actually use the money I saved and spend it on a decent protection.

If I am not super lazy and have the time to wash once a week, I can usually catch any stubborn contaminants before it requires a clay bar.

Be careful pressure washing your engine. Yes they can take getting wet, but at high pressure water will get into far more places it shouldn’t. I use a garden hose sprayer on a low pressure pattern like shower instead. Cars are definitely safer from water these days, but it can still get into places. I learned that lesson years ago when I didn’t cover the coil packs and water got down by the plug and caused a miss fire until it was fully dried out. I know you’re dealing with a newer car so it’s less of a problem than as the car ages and things wear, but it still can happen. You go this far to keep it clean, being extra careful with the most expensive and important part is worth it. I also use a more powerful blower and try to blow out as much water as possible. It gets into places and if it is left to burn off will leave the mineral behind, depending on what’s in your water.
