Biological washing powder (any brand)  is as good as any, there's no need for pure so if you can then connect straight to the customers tap,  the extra pressure makes all the difference.

i use hot pure water and virosol usually for plastics....occasionally ill use CIF cream cleaner too if the plastic is old and has lots of  ground in dirt....

i use a backpack for the applying the virosol,i just squirt CIF on the brush if needed....

I use a Gardiners back pack with tap water with a bit of screw fix degreaser..if I've got none of that washing up liquid with a bit of bleach is good too ;D

How do you apply the washing powder? Mix with water in a backpack sprayer?

I’ve been using a backpack sprayer with a small amount of sodium hypo in and some soap, melts the dirt off, then a quick rinse with the wfp gear (using customers tap)
