The problem is, you really don't know what type of shampoo they use. For the most part, a lot of these places do use some type of automotive shampoo. If dirt is still on your car after washing, it just means you probably didn't aggitate the dirt loose. If you did, it would have taken away the dirt along with the wax if a strong detergent was used. Strong detergents like dish soap easily strips wax off the car. That's why you should never use it unless removing wax was your intention.
