I would use anything like meguires. Never use like dawn dish soap since it can dry out your paint. In between cleaning a good detailer in a spray bottle works perfect.

Can I use Dawn to clean things other than dishes?
Dawn is so effective in cutting grease on dishes that over the years, consumers have used Dawn on other greasy messes around their homes, from cleaning kitchen messes like grease build up on the stove range hood to oily spots in the garage. Dawn is not recommended for window cleaning, car washing, body wash or washing hair.
