1. Myth: Dishwashing and Laundry Detergents are safe to wash your car with.
FALSE: Dishwashing and Laundry detergents may get all the dirt off your vehicle, but they will also remove important protective coatings off the paint surface and dry out the paint on your car. Dish soap and laundry detergent are actually counterproductive because it speeds up the oxidation process and shortens the life of your car’s paint.
