In the absence of car shampoo

[userfriendly]

ordinary dishwashing liquid or shampoo will do. according to my sister who works in shampoo manufacturing, car shampoo, dishwashing liquid and mild hair shampoo have the same components

wont dishwashing liquids strip or remove wax and damage the paint? Di ba dishwashing liquids contain degreasers?

The BIG question is, is it safe for paint?

They might have the basic components but the volume/percentage used per component will differ. Not to mention the other ingredients added to hair shampoo & dishwashing liquid.

By the way... would you use car shampoo or dishwashing liquid to wash your hair?

for me, kung walang car shampoo, I just use water and a soft cloth (pranela) for the body (wag lang mangigil sa kuskos) tapos mild detergent for the wheels.

Well, this is only IF you don't have any alternatives. Para kung nasa province ka man and malayo sa kabihasnan, at least alam natin kung ano magandang gamitin and safe na accessible.

dishwashing soap/liquid (like Joy) is safe for cars. it will, however, strip all the wax from your car. detailers actually use this stuff to strip the car of wax so they can clay/polish a completely clean surface.

but here's the trick - you must wax the car after you use Joy. because after the wash your paint is completely wax-free and naked to the elements. without any protectant the paint is much more susceptible to damage or weathering....

Joy gamit ko di naman kumukupas paint. Tsaka isang timbang tubig konting joy lang. Siguro naman di na masama. Marami nga nagsasabi na di safe to.

Ano ba gamit sa mga carwash? Super safe ba to?
