I don't know about ever using laundry detergents on anything any time soon;-) (no pun intended)
I definateley know what you mean by rinse issues.
One thing I really like to do during a dawn wash, especially on a really messed up vehicle is clay, for some reason all those many contaminants just seem to "release" into the clay just a tad bit easier.

I really feel like the more experienced detailers here on this board, are looking at me shaking thier head going "stupid kid". But FWIW when I'm working on the reaaaly nasty looking cars, that have seen NO love whatsoever....It really does make the job a tad more easier. BUT....I would NEVER use Dawn on ANY THING in more than semi-decent shape!
