Well if you're going to wax your bike it will last longer if you don't use Dawn and use a milder car wash instead. Mind you it probably doesn't take long to wax a bike. I used to use some fancy car wax products from Zaino that would take over an hour to apply. Haven't done it for quite a few years though.
