    Right on! I used Dawn quite a bit way back in the late 90s / early 2000s and still do every now and then. A Dawn wash was part of the whole Zaino application process 😂. It does a great a job at removing crud and is fairly cheap. It is a little hard on old school wax and sealants but today's ceramics *laugh* it. The fear of Dawn is somewhat of a dramedy...the same haters are willingly and frequently throwing down some high-alkyl ph 13 or high-acidic ph 2 soaps to wash the paint. My only complaint of Dawn is that it's not as free-rinsing as traditional car soaps --- Not a big deal if you use a pressure washer but its "stickiness" can be annoying if you are hose-washing.

    The detailing world is definitely getting ridiculous with some of the products these days. I’m not sure the high ph decon soaps are a good comparison though, they aren’t nearly as strong a cleaner as Dawn. Dawn is a very good and strong degreaser. It’s more of an apc than high ph soap. Since Dawn is a strong degreaser it will even eventually weaken a coating if used enough. It removes the oils from the coating, trim or clear coat if not protected. Those ‘durability’ test the YT detailers years ago showed that used enough the stronger cleaners did eventually compromise the coating. As you said, using it every now and then is the key and I agree it’s totally safe in that situation.

    20 years ago , before most of the modern detailing companies existed, we used dish soap alot. Using dish soap for every wash, i saw quite a bit of clear coat failure with repeated use. But at that time, the quality and availability of various protection products wasn't great either. I will never know what exactly caused it , as the state of detailing products overall has improved dramatically maybe it isnt as important. Maybe clear coats have improved, clearly detailing products have come a long way, and heck maybe the dish soaps have different formulas today than 20 + years ago. Interesting video

    I’ve been detailing my cars for over 25 years now and there were plenty of good products available then. You’re correct, not like today though. I was young when I got into it and easily found good products. The auto parts store had plenty of soaps. That said there are still people today using Dawn because they think car soap is a scam, so maybe more did use it back then.🤷‍♂️ Anyways, it’s interesting to hear you saw more failures back then. My understanding of Dawn is that it’s too strong of a degreaser and would strip the clear coat of oils drying it out if used too much. So maybe that’s what happened. Back then clear coats were oil based and put on thicker than todays thin water based cc’s. So They aren’t better today, but the technique and prep of applying them definitely is. Protection is definitely easier to apply today, but is the Dawn washer actually using any? I figure, if they are using any it’s the cheapest stuff available or what’s been sitting in their garage for 15 years. This was interesting to me because it hits on the subject of are there too many ‘specialized’ products today. What’s actually useful and what’s not?

    1st time sub here. Been detailing for 40 years and a side business owner for 4 yrs . When I started in 84 alot of times dish soap was used . Never a problem. Ofcourse protection options are a whole lot different than back then . Clearcoat was just becoming a thing . Truth be told there was alot of off lable stuff being used . Microfiber wasn't a thing . Used baby diapers. Quick detailer ? Pledge . Even today one of my favorite interior cleaners is norwex powder laundry detergent. 2 table spoons to a qt of water. Cleans everything really well . Back to dawn , gyeon suggests using dish soap with their pro line ceramics .

When washing your dirty hands after wrenching 8 hours, use a brush and dawn soap, works better than any product out here to clean your hands. I tried it all already, none beats Dawn.

SC even warns about it now when they didn’t then. The detailing world kind of got scammed by them. Purple Power is even worse. Better off to use a metal safe degreaser like Simple Green Pro HD (the purple stuff) or WD40 specialist degreaser which are specifically made to be safe on all metals.

There’s nothing really wrong with it aside from not rinsing as pure as some other products.

    There's nothing wrong with using Dawn dish soap for washing your car. You don't want to use others though because dishsoaps are abrasive and will hurt your clear coat over time. Dawn is ph neutral and non abrasive so it will work just fine on your car.

    Worth noting although ph’s can be the same numerically , however the chemicals used to get there can have a long term detrimental affect on protection, example sea water only has a ph of 8, however I wouldn’t be using it…not all ph’s are equal.

    I just dont understand. I put about a tablespoon of dish soap on the mitten, lather, and go over my whole car, rinse, and dry with blue absorber, done. Cost me $0.20 of soap and car comes out clean as new. I see people using massive amounts of soap to make more foam than the next neighbor, almost like theyre competing. I just dont understand why sooo much soap and then just to rinse it off.

    I enjoy real unbiased experiments. I've used dawn in the spray bottle on tires and find it removes dirt better than some of the brands influencers suggest. A local reputable body repair guy said there is nothing wrong with using Dawn to wash your car. Will I use it always? No. Now that I've learned what PH means. Quality with low cost is what I see here for decon or heavy crust on cars. Thanks for sharing

    Not a great idea to use dish soap on a regular basis. It strips protection and will eventually damage the finish. Most details will use something like this to intentionally strip protection when they want to decon, correct and then add protection.

    Many of those 'horror stories'' about dawn (or any other dish soap for that matter) are brought into the world by the companies who try to sell their own products. My great grandfather and grandfather were both in the car business and all they used was dish soap. Of course a lot has changed products, chemicals etc. There's nothing wrong with using it as long as you rinse your car well and wax it. I've seen cars which were washed with dish soap for over 20 years or more. No dullness oxidation or what so ever.

    If Dawn was or is the Holy Grail of Car Wash Soap, then everyone would be using it. Truth is, Dawn is great on grease and grime but will eat away at your Clear Coat. Do not ever use dishwashing detergent/soap on your vehicle. Again, if Dawn is the Best, then why has it been pushed away for decades?

  • @AndreasSchwarzinger

    Unfortunately, this video misses a few key points. 1. Have a look in the safety data sheet of Dawn, and then gather some information on „sodium salts“ and „sodium hydroxide“. The statement that Dawn is „fine under any circumstances“ is just plain and factually wrong - there is no other and no nicer way of saying this. 2. In the video is was said that Dawn doesn‘t scratch paint and that the video provided proof for that. Well, again, it doesn‘t. Proof would have been to wash a panel with Dawn and with regular car soap with the same mitt and then see if there are more or less scratches on one panel or the other. See for example: kzread.info/dash/bejne/fmWrsKOOepC8nbQ.htmlsi=Egftn2SX9Pz5pZTm 3. Using Dawn on ONE car with ONE ceramic coating and ONE ceramic detailer and the concluding that it is safe on any LSP is just factually incorrect. That‘s not how testing works. Unfortunately, the video does NOT show nor proof what is claims to show or proof.
