You need clay. That's the answer you're looking for here. Pick up the Meguiars clay bar kit, wash the car, and then follow the directions on the kit. For more info look at videos on youtube of the technique.
Clay is the only safe way to remove stuck on grime from the paint - it won't mar - it won't remove paint - and it'll make your paint as smooth as a baby's bottom.

What I want is a SPECIAL SOAP that will make the dirt on my car easily removable by water. Before Clay Bar and Before even Washing the car. The pre-wash step

Yes, I also have a pressure washer. This is what I do: 1. Wash car with water 2. Wash car with pressure washer (medium valve) 3. I use the soap dispenser on the pressure washer and wait 5 min 4. Pressure wash the car Most of the dirt is like glued to my car and before actually hand washing. I want to remove 50% BEFORE I hand wash. So I need a powerful soap that will break it down and when I come to pressure wash it, it falls off.

Foam cannon + megs gold class = super foam.
![]() Get some foam like this and let it sit on the car for a few minutes then pressure wash off. I really don't think you're gonna get the surface cleaner than that without touching it. |

The soap dispenser is like the foam cannon. However, it doesn't make the soap foam as much as the foam cannon. Nice haha, okay thanks.

Safely is a subjective term. If you're gonna get something strong enough to eat away dirt without you touching it, and without it etching your paint then you should definitely share the info when you find this miracle product.
We all want this SPECIAL SOAP. Find your local detailer store. They might have better information that what you're gonna find here. I know a bit about detailing, but there's nothing that I found that can do what you're asking. |

Hmmm...try soap canon loaded with dishwasher liquid? That stuff is expected to loosen grime without touching the dishes, right?
I would expect that stuff to sap oils from your paint and such though. You'd probably have to condition your paint after something like that. Maybe try several passes with regular car wash soap in a soap canon several times? Dunno. At this point, your guess is as good as mine. |
