I use WD 40, spray on heaps, I try not to get it on rubbers as some people claim it dries them out.
Give it a scrub, then I hit with high pressure washer.
Takes a few times but eventually wears it down.

I know a guy who uses CT18. Its an aluminium cleaner which is slightly acidic, good for chassis and engine, however I wouldn't use it on the body at all. He just sprays it on and hoses off almost straight away. Amazing how the red dirt disappears. He was showing me how
well it cleaned his boat and we wiped a bit on the trailer, so then we had to do the whole trailer as there was one shiny patch.
I also know someone who uses a floor cleaner to clean his engine and swears by it. His cars are always immaculate, however he doesn't live in an area with red dust. I will find out the name of the floor cleaner tomorrow and post a follow up.
