Cheers! Thought it was but wasn't sure!! I've got a bit of wax left on the car, would I be able to apply Poorboys and then reapply wax?

I would use an APC to get rid of the old wax and start from scratch

All Purpose Cleaner.
My personal preference is G101 but you can use cheap alternatives such as tesco's daisy (approx 79p per L)

Would Fairy washing up liquid count as an APC?

Surely the salt only softens the water?

I wouldn't personally use Fairy liquid, especially when there are proven safe alternatives readily available from your local supermarket for <£1 per Litre

Another popular option on detailingworld is 'stardrops' which can be purchased from Asda for similar money.
