Yikes, I heard dishwashing liquid cuts right through your wax....although I used it for years and have only recently switched to an auto type wash that does not cut wax.

It depends on how much you use. For general cleaning I just use a small amount. If it is really grungy I use a lot and rewax. Thirty miles on I-94 in heavy rain and heavy traffic calls for a deep cleaning. It is really grungy after a commute like that.
