Im a bit of a Detailing addict...

You want to get as much of that of as possible before touching the car and don't go the full on jet wash route.

I would cover that in snow foam initially and then rinse from a distance.

Then go for a strong prewash such as AutoBrite Citrus Wash (I'm an Autobrite fan)

Then see how it looks, I would on my vehicle continue pre wash such as iron out etc but that'll do you a good start and limit the additional damage down during dirt removal.

That said though, if you are hitting it with a DA you will want it clean as possible to not move contaminants on the paint. MY2023 Discovery 5 R-Dynamic 3.0

I’ve had the Veleting guy round today and good news he’s managed to sort the scratches out, and for £25 am well chuffed.

He used a rotary car polisher, not sure what product he had, then was buffing the bodywork with a lint free cloth.
Sorry could not be more help on that front.

To me for £25 it’s worth speaking to a local mobile valeter.

Hope you get your motor sorted, let us know how you get on. General Grabber AT3's
