I'm sorry to see you go through this - it's painful. I'm happy to see you right back at it!

Lots of work to do twice. Hope this comes out great.

It seems like most painters use "Pre-Kleeno" or similar products shortly before painting, which is totally incorrect. Another cleaner called a pre-paint cleaner is what is to be used on paint day. The other one is meant to be used before even sanding the old paint, to remove wax etc as much as possible. Pre-Kleeno can leave an oily residue. Until very recently I had a body shop, I have seen this a lot, usually with decent results, but sometimes it bites back. We are (most of us) guys, who reads the instructions? Not us.

I remembered some spots in the paint I wasn't happy with this thing is full of dust and crud from sanding, how would you pros clean this to get it ready for primer ? I really want to pull it out and wash it with dish detergent but I'm thinking it will flash rust

Turn the heat up in the garage and then wipe it dry immediately after. I wash all my work before priming. Solvents can be a slippery slope when prepping. I use a lot of heat lamps as well. If it’s a nice sunny day push it out side and wash.
You can always lightly sand before priming.
You read this on the inter web so it must be true and I’m not a pro but I have stayed a red roof inn.

I went and gave her a good washing then dried it good with a leaf blower, a few hrs later she was primed
