Question

Can i use dishsoap to wash my car??

Answer 1

You can if you ran out of car wash soap but as others have said, I wouldn't suggest it.

Answer 2

NO NO NO!!!! Just don't do it. Car wash concentrate is inexpensive and you can pick it up just about anywhere including Wal-Mart and Target. Dish washing liquid is too harsh for clear coat finishes. It will be easier to just use the right thing to wash it and you will get much better results.  

Answer 3

You can use it but it will take out some of the gloss or the shine (if you will). You would be better off getting something that is made for washing cars.

Answer 4

you can but it sometimes will leave water spots on it they make a car wash soap that you can buy at any parts store that's a lot better for washing it in,it doesn't cost all that much and is a lot better for washing a car with,if you do use dish washing soap use just a small amount,other wise you may see a whole lot of water spots on it,good luck
