[@douglashouck6556]

There is another factor involved here and that is the toxic effects of detergents (as opposed to soaps) on aquatic living things. So if you are washing your car outside and are connected to a storm drain that discharges into a nearby body of water, that dish soap can be highly toxic to fish, etc. The powerful surfactants in dawn dish soap (actually a detergent) binds tightly with the gill membranes resulting in suffocation. It's been awhile since I've checked, but generally car soaps are much milder and have a much lower toxicity. That being said, I noticed on my Chemical Guys Snowball foam that it contains Benzene. Benzene is probably the most toxic solvent (also a carcinogen) out there and should not be made a part of anything that the general public can get their hands on. You can check with your auto soap chemists and see what they have to say on the topic.

[@fredstrat]

Encore et toujours de très bons conseils. Thank you so much Pan ! 👍

[@zachf6256]

Thanks Pan, I will use dish soap in the spring along with a clay bar to completely remove any grime build up over the course of the winter. (ONT. Salt and brine)Followed by any minor corrections that need to be addressed. (Random orbital buffer, Autogylm) Soap go to’s are Mr Pink, Meguiar’s wash / Wax and turtle wax Max power. This spring I am looking forward to applying a ceramic or graphene coating. Haven’t decided yet. I purchased a bottle of the T wax Hybrid solutions graphene flex wax and applied it to my black QX80, Tundra and S550 S class. which resulted in a deep shine. Very pleased, but would like to take things a step further😊 Thanks for the great and informative videos 😊

[@timmclaughlin7576]

So glad you did this video. People ask me ALL the time this question, even other pro detailers. There are SO many great soaps on the market. But I would have to say Phoenix EOD Apex is my go to. I love putting in eucalyptus or tea tree essential oils in the foam cannon & bucket. It cleans the best. Plus I enjoy changing the smell, or have no smell at all.

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Thanks Tim! Yeah there are a lot of myths and misconceptions about soaps.

[@erik9108]

Quick and to the point! Learned something new about the composition of dish soap too.

[@PanTheOrganizer]

[@kmcq3576]

I just started using dawn again on my semi tractor just to see how it would work. It works really good. I finish foaming with turtle wax hybrid ceramic wash and it is unbelievable how it looks and stays clean. It also drys off easier. Just my experience and trying something different

[@PhilbyFavourites]

In the UK the most popular variant by far is “Fairy Liquid” Loved by decades of housewives - before it became the male job to wash up too…. Yes it’s been going that long. My mum used it to clean dishes and her Fiat 127 Palio over 40 years ago. The Fiat has long since returned to its component form through the Italian Rust Bug. But “Fairy Liquid” soldiers on 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@flytyingguy1]

Pan before I started watching you & several other videos dish soap was all I used. I also really never knew how to use a car. Thanks to you & your channel I can say now I am so much more educated about washing & detailing a vehicle. I’ve even advanced enough to ceramic coat my car! Thanks Pan for all you do!

Hi Pan! Thank you for sharing. I have a ceramic coated black MYLR and I need some tips. Last weekend I used bead maker as drying aid but after finishing buffing the product, I could notice marks on the paint as if I had not spread the product well. Any tips for removing these without damaging the ceramic coating? I already DM you through Instagram to send you pictures of the paint. Thank you!!

[@josephdefreitas56]

Super informative and a great short vid to share with neighbors and friends to educate them about the dangers of dish soaps and the benefits of a dedicated car shampoo. As you replied in a comment below " The Pan fam does things right! 💪🏻" Yes we do!!

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@jgalar10361]

Hi, I using now the Chemical Guys Honeydew snow foam wash. But was a good deal buy the Meguiar's soap that Costco sold. I try before the Meguiar's Mirror Glaze #62, bring gloss, lubricity and suds that you want.

[@Tim.Stotelmeyer.2984]

I use Dawn to remove stubborn baked on pollen that laughs at regular car shampoos.

[@jylppy63]

Good video. My favorite is Gyeon Bathe and CarPro Reset. Btw.I have never used dish soap,but dad some times washed the car with Fairy dish soap or Mäntysuopa soft pine soap in the 70s.😁

[@josephdefreitas56]

To super charge even a PH neutral shampoo, I find that a small amount like 1 oz of Super Clean or Purple Blaster added to the foam cannon mix can add that potency that you need to help remove previous waxes etc before machine polishing for a coating. It is even great for just cleaning really dirty cars but will remove weaker waxes. Like all shampoos, do not let it dry on the paint

[@saviordream]

I used Dawn once or twice years ago to help break down old waxes, but nowadays I just use a dedicated strip wash soap. My favorite soap is Adam's, whether the standard (for wheels or for non-ceramic coated cars), or their graphene shampoo (for coated cars). I also use their Mega Foam for use in my foam cannon. I've been very happy with them, but I'd like to give a try to something else, just to branch out. I'm finding it difficult to justify at the moment though just because I've got so much of the stuff on hand!

[@jimprovax6846]

Good morning Pan. Thanks for the quick video. My neighbors think I’m crazy with all the different detailing products. One neighbor constantly uses Dawn dish soap. He can’t understand why his finish is so lack luster. 😂 I like many different products. CarPro Reset is good. Just got going with the DIY products. Incredible suds works well. Enjoy your day my friend.

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Thanks for sharing!! And hopefully your neighbor learns a few lessons from you! ;)

[@cgallahar]

As usual, a wildly thorough and well articulated explanation, Pan! Those other chemists really know their stuff as I feel my answers were insufficient for the amount of content you quickly rolled through! 😂

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Haha! You rock Chris! I find it amazing that I can give you chemists a voice for the public to hear, as I have so much respect for scientists as you know. Without hard working people like you in the background, we wouldn’t get to indulge in our passion for detailing. Continue coming up with innovations for all of us to enjoy!

[@Cornish_Maid]

I used to use Auto Glym shampoo and conditioner, however since I just bought my VW Golf 1.5 GT Turbo TSI, I now use DIY detail rinsless wash, followed by their ceramic sealant with their clay cloth. I’m very new to all this, so hopefully I’m at least going down the right path.

[@dexterfurman9118]

That was very interesting. Thank you.

[@PanTheOrganizer]

[@carlosa7807]

I sold my Delorean a couple of years ago. Dawn dishwashing liquid was the preferred cleaner for car washes. For a deep clean I would use Barkeeper’s Friend

[@michaelm1739]

Pan excellent informative video on the make-up of different soaps. When I see cars that the clear coat is gone my immediate guess is that either the car went through a weekly car wash or was regularly cleaned by dish detergent. You are spot on as to the use of dish detergent on a "one in a while" wash but I differ to using car shampoos that are made to clean cars and DISH detergents made to clean dishes. Cheers

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Thanks Michael!

[@justplanefred]

I used to use a lot of Meguires car wash soaps but I really like Chemical guys Mr. Pink. I know I’m a bit behind still doing the two bucket method wash but I haven’t gotten to foam cannons quite yet.

[@adamlyman8293]

This title…you know how to bait the hook..LOL. Great video Pan. As an older guy, I did use Dawn and a kitchen sponge on my cars for many many years. Slowly but surely, I learned about better products for vehicvle care and then in past year or so I discovered your channel….and now my wife is always asking me “What did Pan say to do?” LOL. Any way, I’m a car detailing enthusiast and currently use P&S Pearl auto shampoo concentrate as my go-to. I believe I discovered the P&S line as well as many other brands from watching YOU. :)

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Hehe that’s cool! Thanks for sharing Adam!

[@ericwright1075]

I alternate Adams car shampoo and TW ceramic wash to do our suv. In the winter Dawn detergent is used on the winter tires and steel rims once in a while( they seem to keep cleaner longer). When spring arrives I go back to using my TW wheel cleaners on our summer rims and tires. 🇨🇦👍👍

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Thanks for sharing!

[@charlesmitchell9647]

CarPro Lift, Reset or DeScale are my favorites. Although I have been using DIY Detail Rinseless Wash as a prewash.

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Thanks for sharing. All great choices Charles!

[@CrisEdmundson]

I appreciate the perspective on using dish soap as an aid in removing previous protection, that was something I had wondered about as a broke person who enjoys detailing, though obviously you still don't have the lubricity of car shampoo. On the subject of detailing on a tight budget, harbor freight released some new detailing specific tools, particularly microfibers, I'd really love to see your take on. The new general-purpose detailing microfibers for example are 350 gsm, 80 20 blend, and have two different colors so if you buy one set you can still keep them separate for different tasks. At a genuinely incredible price point. I think harbor freight has really been stepping up their game and trying to improve their reputation- I'd really love to see you review the stuff they have available as bang for the buck options for folks just getting into the hobby or people who just don't have much to spend! As for shampoo, all I've used so far is meguiars gold class as it came in the kit that got me started, but when I use it up I'm excited to try the hybrid solutions shampoos, they seem to have similarly focused on stepping up their game for value offerings, which I really love to see ☺️

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Yeah Turtle Wax really turned things around when they launched the Hybrid Solutions line in 2019. And have been releasing great value products in that line ever since. I have a full brand review of the Hybrid line here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ipa0g31-g9t_aZYsi=rmvqJVrsuyTuu9c0

[@CrisEdmundson]

@@PanTheOrganizer That video actually helped inform my desire to give their stuff a try next! In every video where you've talked products from that line, you've had the notes that they've performed quite well and are exceptional value for the money, so I went and watched the overview video. They seem like a really good fit for my needs and budget so most of what I'm picking up to add to the Meguiars kit I started with is from the hybrid solutions line and I'm looking forward to seeing how I like them :) It was cool to learn they're still family owned too Like I said, I'd love to see a review of the detailing tools harbor freight is carrying now, I think some of them seem like great budget entry points and would be excited to see a more informed perspective! Thanks for the reply and I hope you have a good one!

Hi Pan.. good video. I'll use a few drops of Dawn in my bucket w/water to keep dirt off my brushes as I clean my wheels. Paintwork using GSF presoak and Reset contact wash. 👍

[@KPDetails]

I don't rely solely on the stripping shampoos. I've been using Gyeon Bathe or ONR or Absolute for my clients and personal vehicles.

[@Wishes890]

What I do is I use an inexpensive ceramic coat, clean and apply in April and again in November. I coat all the exposed surfaces, and wash my car with Dawn only, but I wash, as an average, 8 times a year. Also, dry with a leather chamois and leaf blower.

So I keep my vehicle in the garage.. I recently had to cook on my griddle in the garage due to rain. Food turned out good.

[@randybecker7339]

While I am also among those who used to use Dawn dish soap way back when, I now use Meguiar's G7148 Gold Class Car Wash Shampoo and Conditioner. It's affordable, fairly neutral, and does a great job. Thanks for this video.

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Thanks for sharing Randy! Yes the Gold Class is a classic soap. Works super well. I also made a video with my favourite 15 car shampoos here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oYi2goameZWFrdksi=jQlHxRp-TOdhYxww

[@atrain132]

Adam's polishes mega foam is my favorite soap to use

[@Ssp2105]

Pan, what is the best soap, both in foam cannon and bucket, to remove water spots from sprinklers? I wash and maintain regularly with all the methods you demonstrate however I don't polish. Thanks for your help and keep up the good work, the info is much appreciated!!

[@PanTheOrganizer]

The best soap for removing water spots and mineral buildup is this one: bit.ly/3x9GyKv I put 5 oz of that in 4 gal of water and I wash my car. For the pre-wash in a foam cannon, use 1:10 dilution (1 oz for every 10 oz of water). But it depends how bad the water spots are and how long they were left unattended. That soap will work miracles if you catch the water spots early enough. If that doesn't work, you have to step up to a water spot remover spray (like CarPro Spotless 2.0) and if that still doesn't work, you'll have to machine polish the paint.

[@billbuss7542]

Pan, any news regarding the reformulated Cerakote ceramic coating?

[@PanTheOrganizer]

No news for now, other than they are currently in the testing phase of the new version. They said they'd send e-mails out to anyone who purchased the original version, once the new one becomes officially available. We want them to get it right, so they can take all the time they need for their tests.

[@Ldrago9262]

[@JohnBairBirch]

[@PanTheOrganizer]

You can use any automotive glass cleaner. No problem.

[@VIDEOHEREBOB]

Lubricity is one of the biggest factors that differentiates dish detergent from car soap. That, and car soap will not break down sealants and waxes as fast as a dish detergent will. I will use whatever long-established name brand is on sale.

[@Nicholas-db5sl]

I’ve recently been using Turtle Wax Pure (Slick and Slide). I’m impressed by it, it produces a nice thick foam via my snow-foam cannon. Light rub over all the trucks body work with a mitt, then water jet off. Dry. Sit back and admire. I’d never consider domestic household cleaners on my vehicle.

Nice video Pam as this has been a hot topic again. I always say Dawn is a degreaser with a sheeting coating built in and it needs to stay with dishes. I am off for my first install of C6 Hydro on a white Audi. Thank you for the video and I hope your household is doing well!

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Let me know how it goes! I’m hearing crazy good things about C6!

[@neilwalker5041]

@@PanTheOrganizer the product line is crazy awesome and easy to use. APP has a similar cut to Uno Pure as people tried to use it as a medium cut polish and created a gluey mess. Apply APP with your 8mm polisher using the red DIY jeweling pad. I spin the polisher at about 3 1/2. I used the Meguiars M300 and 3800 rpm’s was the sweet spot for me. I give the paint two to three passes depending on how much gloss you want. Let the APP sit for at least an hour and I have gone as long as three hours. Removal is as simple as using a microfiber towel as it will remind you of removing a strong ceramic coating. The coatings are super easy to apply as I used almost 10 mils on an AudiQ7 including glass and wheel facings. The coating seems to melt into the paint so you have to trust you applied the coating correctly. Wipe off is super simple and not overly click. About three hours later the slickness really starts to increase. The gloss is like nothing else. I have some pictures if you want to see them.

[@PanTheOrganizer]

I'm looking forward to test that! Apparently the hydrophobics are off the charts with C6 Hydro!

[@neilwalker5041]

@@PanTheOrganizer I will make a video on the hydrophobic next week. The videos I have seen are unlike any other coating. I am coating another Dodge Ram truck Sunday with C6 and I will also capture a quick video when it comes in for the one week update. I forgot to mention on APP I use one small pea drop per panel. I end up using two half size pea drops with both drops on opposite ends of the pad per panel because my head thinks it will redistribute more evenly. There is probably no benefit of using two half size pea drops but I still do it. I cannot wait for your video!

I was taught by my father to wash the car with a bucket of plain water and a sponge or a rag. Dry with an old bath towel. His theory- Cars don't get dirty enough if you maintain them to warrant soap. If its really dirty spray it down at the car wash first. I use incredible suds when weather is above freezing, DIY rinseless during the winter months.

[@PanTheOrganizer]

That’s a situation where it makes sense to use dish soap.

[@matthausss]

Some people say that Dawn has chemicals that are bad for your health/skin. I would wear gloves when using it or buy something that doesn’t contain harsh chemicals.

[@davidhindle594chemicalman]

In England they put a lot of salts in our dishwasher liquid, which is not good for your car, they are designed to remove grease, and will strip your cars protective wax coating.

[@craftwanderer8802]

Pan! I just applied seal n shine for the first, seeing the bottle say not to over apply scared me so I did 1 spray on my towel and 1 spray on the panel. but I watched your videos and you sprayed once on your towel and 2 - 3 times on the panel. is that ok? Im not getting the super shine like I see on youtube but on youtube everybody does more than the recommended 2 sprays

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Seal N Shine can get streaky if you overapply. So one or two sprays per panel is totally fine. As long as you're getting even coverage. Seal N Shine is glossy, but not the glossiest. Its main thing is chemical resistance, and gives you 4-6 months durability from a quite inexpensive product. The next step up in the Turtle Wax range if you want even more gloss and durability is their Graphene Flex Wax, which lasts 9-12 months. But regardless of what paint protection you apply, always keep in mind there's a limit to the gloss they can boost. They're usually just the icing on the cake. The best way to get the biggest increase in measurable gloss units (if you were to use a gloss meter) is ALWAYS through machine polishing. Paint correction removes oxidation, defects like swirls and scratches, increases depth and clarity, and by flattening the surface makes for better light reflection, and thus increases gloss. Then you wipe the surface with a paint prep spray to remove polishing oils, and then you apply your choice of paint protection (wax, sealant or ceramic coating). I hope this helps.

[@craftwanderer8802]

wow, appreciate the very detailed response from a big and very busy detailer! another think I would like to ask is, after applying protection that makes water bead and sheet and all that, what do I do after driving in the rain? just ignore the water beadings? rinse it off?@@PanTheOrganizer

[@truekarol3185]

Before coating, using dish soap is the best method to remove all residue after polishing, compounds etc. Then on final stage we can use for ex gyeon prep to final wipe, and bonding between coating and surface is on the glhighest level. That’s my opinion

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Yes that's one good use for dish soap. Gyeon actually recommends to wash the car with dish soap after polishing steps. Then you do an IPA wipe (with Gyeon Prep) and then you apply the coating.

Haha yeah there are still scenarios where using dish soap is useful, for example after you are done doing polishing oils, sometimes an IPA wipe isn't enough and using a heavier degreasing agent like dish soap is good, or if you don't have a stripping soap and you need something to start stripping older waxes and sealants and you're in a pinch, dish soap can work. Just don't use it for regular weekly washes or on a car that has paint protection like a wax or sealant. ;)

[@johnnyquid3350]

PAN, Something I dont think you've ever talked about is RUST REMOVAL and rust prevention. I'm talking about removing rust on the undercarriage with media blasting, or acids, or rust converter, ect.. While the vehicle is on the ground or on stands in the garage. Tons of people have salt on their roads during winter and don't necessarily want to pay a shop thousands to remove the rust! If this isn't in your wheelhouse I understand but I'm sure you have some thoughts on it. I just don't see the benefit of spraying paint over rust and forgetting about it! Thanks Pan!

[@PanTheOrganizer]

I actually don't have thoughts on that, since I get a new car every three years, and currently only detail brand new cars (high end detailing packages). I don't deal with used cars or old cars that go to that point, so that's beyond my expertise.

Thanks for the video. Again, as many many videos across KZbin, a lot of talk but never demonstrating Dawn dish soap verses other stripping chemical wash soaps. Also, no one ever talks about the runoff of all of those harsh chemicals into our watershed vs dish soap that has been repeatedly used directly on wildlife to clean up environmental hazards. If it’s good enough to clean baby ducks soaked in a oil spill, it’s good enough for your vehicle’s paint as a tougher cleaner than a pH neutral car wash soap that’s used for regular maintenance cleaning.

[@PanTheOrganizer]

You perhaps did not pay attention to what the chemists had to say about dish soaps in general. If you want to continuously wash your car with them, hey you do as you wish. But don't think it's "right" just because you do it. The chemists that formulate these products know more about soaps and their chemistries than 99% of people will ever dream of knowing. So sometimes, it's best to let people who know more guide us. I like facts and science (I have a background in medicine, more specifically in molecular biology and biochemistry, so I have tremendous respect for the men and women who dedicate their lives to advancements in science). Dish soap can still be used in some rare occasions, like after paint correction to remove polishing oils, but should not be used for regular weekly washes.

[@edwardmonsariste4050]

@@PanTheOrganizerthanks for reply. I did not ever say use Dawn dish soap as a regular wash. Perhaps you misread my comment. I asked about using it as a higher pH cleaner. I asked about demonstrating the properties of high end pH cleaners as a tougher cleaner and sealant/wax prep vs using Dawn soap, comparing the chemicals composition of each and ease of use, price, and environmental concerns. No one wants to touch this subject. “A scientist gave an opinion” is not an answer I am looking for. Chemists (to my knowledge) have never analyzed the cleaning ability and lubricity of Dawn dish soap with scientific measurements on a hood of a Mercedes Benz as a prewash. I am concerned with the amount of chemicals being promoted, like benzene for instance, that are very harmful to us and the environment, in pursuit of profit. Again, thank you very much for reading my comments. I very much appreciate your many many videos that demonstrate your knowledge and sharing your experience with people interested in this profession and DIY.

[@DomSchiavoni]

A common problem with machine polishing to remove protection is failure to remove all residue prior to applying the next protection. With nothing but a dry buff/wipe down there can still be a remaining layer of oil. This is where a quick wash with Dawn could be beneficial (post-polish) .

[@DomSchiavoni]

Some people are using IPA for final wipedown which can be good but you only need it to be 10-25%, not the full 70. Remaining issue is the difficulty to get in all the seam/crevice/gaps around headlights between doors ect... so it can still be good to just foam the whole car up and clean again to make sure as much residue as possible is removed from those areas.

[@PanTheOrganizer]

In that case I agree 100%. Removing polishing oils can be helped with a warm dish soap solution to wash the car with. I wilk have a video coming soon on that topic. ;)

[@DomSchiavoni]

Great. Thank you. Effective Protection Prep is a skill that many people lack. Just buying an over priced 16oz bottle of "prep-spray" and doing a quick wipe down is NOT going to get her done. Be sure to touch on all the ways one could unintentionally harm their polished/perfected paint by doing things like using an old or poor quality towel, or not thoroughly cleaning the vehicles crevices beforehand leaving soil that could be pulled out any step of the way damaging the paint. Imagine perfect paint to be ruined in the final wipe down step by picking up some crud in a side-view mirror and rubbing it across the paint...

[@chrisbradley3224]

Dish soap is effective at degreasing but it definitely leaves residues, even brands that claim to be free and clear. I test a lot of products on a shower mirror and noticed that dish soap affects the hydrophobics while Dove bar soap does not. Dove sensitive bar soap is actually one of the most effective non-acid coating “uncloggers” I’ve tried. Not advocating using Dove on a car but it is interesting.

Pan, I need your advice. I was detailing a car for a friend. She has a 2008 Toyota Solara. It only has 32,000 miles on it. It looks brand new except for the dashboard. She said she put Armor All on it and the dashboard melted. It is really sticky and very shiny. It was hard for me to see out of the window because of the reflection off the dash. Have you ever heard of this? Any advice on how to make it less sticky and, more importantly, less shiny.

[@PanTheOrganizer]

I wouldn't recommend using Armor All on your interiors. That's a thing of the past. Overly oily and glossy looking. Use appropriate interior detailers, that can clean and lay down protection. See my battle of the best interior detailers here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aIjFaJKEod6Ki6csi=Ce5-Bc3Ykgif-wpi But first, to remove that oily mess you have, start by using a pure quality interior cleaner like this: amzn.to/3ysm51a Clean the surface. You might need a few rounds of that to fully remove the gunk. Then use the interior detailer to apply protection. And maintenance from then on will be as simple as using that interior detailer for regular maintenance. Spray on a towel, wipe on, buff off. Bingo.
