If you scroll back some, you will see many answers to this question. In general I suggest a mild dish soap in luke warm water with a prompt towel dry. After a couple hours, scrub off any remaining dirt and wax with Naptha, paint thinner, and wipe away with a paper towel till the surface gives up no more dark residue. Wax with a toluene free satin wax and polish to a low sheen with a soft cotton cloth.
