Dawn difference to others dish soap

[DaC]

Guys, I'm not from the US so I'm trying to figure this out....
It seems to me that Dawn is a brand of dish soap, right ? In case it is just a brand of dish soap, what's so special about it ?

Dawn is indeed a dish soap brand. And for me it is the best because of how concentrated it is. And how well it cuts through grease and grime. This ability also makes it good for stripping LSP's.

Now everything is getting more clear...... so when everybody here talks about Dawn they are actually talking about this brand and not any dish soap..... I see.....

I know I should create a different topic about it.... but.... is there any difference between these dish soup and laundry detergent ?

Saying Dawn may also be like saying "kleenex" or "Band-aid" which one brand becomes the item's popular nickname. Similar to when someone "bics" their head we all know that means to shave it and hopefully they didn't use an actual bic razor cause they're cheap.

Dish soaps are different than laundry soaps as they are aimed at cutting grease(which is why they cut wax) not at cloth and its a little stronger than anything we have here stateside for laundry or all your cloths would fade like crazy.

I was searching the net and found different places stating the opposite.... that laundry detergent is more aggressive than dish soap, because they don't need to preserve human skin...

I thought Dawn Dish Soap was known world wide. The only soap to wash water fowl after an oil spill.

I have not seen Dawn remove all of a well cured sealant, so I prefer a dedicated paint cleanser or polisher to remove lsp's specifically.
