Your methods are sound. The only place I differ is that Dawn is for dishes (and cleaning oil spill damaged animals). There's plenty of videos on youtube showing that it leaves a surfactant on the vehicle, and it has been shown that it doesn't really strip wax, its an illusion. That surfactant is to keep spots off your dishes, The spot free stuff makes it look like the wax is gone and water is not beading. Wash off the spotless surfactant stuff and the wax is still there, and the water beads again. But whatever...I know there are gurus that swear by it, and it won't hurt.

I use a good quality car shampoo that removes wax like Chemical Guys Clean Slate or Citrus Wash & Gloss at a high concentration, clay and polish to remove wax or coatings.
