Default Does Anyone Use a Citrus De-Greaser?

I saw a youtube vid of someone washing their S2K and used a citrus degreaser for the prewash...

If you use a degreaser it will strip off all the old product off your car. I wouldn't recommend it for a routine wash. The only place I really would use a degreaser is on the engine.

There are definitely reasons to strip the car but it's not something you'd do for just a "normal" washing.
