Yeah, dish soap has its fit! Not bad to use before you wax if you ask me to get the car clean and it will dry great because of the surfactants that they use. Actually, Mr Clean uses some of these same surfactants in their car wash, just w/o the stripping capabilities.

OK, John already said it, but the best way to AVOID water spots is to rinse the car with demin or distilled or deionized water when you are done. Mr. Clean Car Wash is good or you can buy distilled water at the store. If you get enough of it on the car, you can get away w/o even drying.

Getting spots off, can be a pain in the azz. Don't wax over them, though, remove them first.

I have really grown to love the following procedure:
1 - Maguires #1 Cleaner
2 - Maguires #2 Sealer
3 - Tech Wax....two coats.

I do this every other month and hit it with Tech Wax Booster Wax whenever I wash it...which is 1 - 2 times per week. My black GT looks like glass. I also use Maguires Quick Detailer too from time to time. Hey, I've done it all. My bud brought his new BMW Vert over the other day and I schooled him big time on washing the thing....showed him all my tricks.

I also used PS215 over the top of the Tech Wax if I am feeling crazy.
