If you mean the automated one's then i hope you like swirls in your paintwork as you'll end up with lots!

Take the time out and give it a wash yourself instead of destroying your paintwork going through those things.

There are plenty of dedicated cleaners for softops that you can get, do a search and see what fits your budget.

Something like these (just used as examples)
