i doubt it would hurt the finish, but why use it?

Zaino Bros recommend using liquid Dawn to prepare the surface to accept their products. I believe it is b/c it's great to cut road grime, bugs, etc. I don't believe ANY manf recommends washing your car regularly w/ the stuff tho.

Dish washing deterget may or do contain acids or alkalines.
Only for the prep for the Zaino process would I use it. This is the old stuff we did back in the early & mid 70s to wash cars. I remember when I started using Zip Wax from Turtle Wax. I never once again used any dishwashing detergent on a car. We have come along way in 25yrs.

dont do it!
dishwashing detergents contain abrasives.
if you have alot of tar dirt... spray some bug & tar remover on the bitch. then wash with Dawn.
then zaino it so the shit stops sticking to your car!
