Does applying dish washing liquid (for long drives) damage the car paint?

Hi all,

I am planning for a road trip to dubai from doha next week. I saw in some posts that If I use the sand like spray, i have to polish the car to remove it. Some said using dish washing liquid is the cheap and best option. Does the dish washing liquid damage the car paint? My car color is black, so I am a bit concerned.

It is better and safer to use the sand like spray to protect the paint of your car from the abrassive sand storm that you may encounter on your road trip to Dubai. It is specifically designed for that purpose.

I have used the sand like spray,... it does not need polish to be removed. It comes off just by water. And car paint is not effected. Not sure how safe the washing liquid is on the car paint. I think people use it because its cheaper than the sand spray.
