Teg been meaning to ask you about washing your car with normal detergent, doesn't that strip it of all coatings, or is that the idea?

Washing with normal dish detegent, on a regular basis is not a great idea. Its designed to remove grease and cooking from plates, so it will certainly remove dirt from your car.. however it will also remove wax/polish and it also dries out your rubber seals. I do it only ONCE a year as a deep clean. Then another wash with Zaino then the Zaino system begins.
