I don't feel like going to the store. What is the best soap to use that I have at home? Dawn? Wisk? Ivory bars?

I've used dishwashing liquid before and it worked fine. I don't know if laundry detergent is better or about the same. I'd just recommend that you use a liquid vs. a powder just in case the latter has a tendency to scratch the paint.
Have fun washing the car.

I use Dawn in hot water. Hot water to rinse all the rocks and scratchy stuff off first. Dawn in a bucket with more hot water. Scrub it all with a soft brush. Rinse, rinse rinse. Squeegie thingy dry. Then chamois the stuff the squeegie thingy cant get.
When your done, can you come over? :Whistle
