Why no soap? I clean with dish soap to remove oils, works great.
Residual surface-contamination.
Most people don't understand how much rinsing is required to get residue all off things..
Dishwashers which have 2+ rinses seem to do a good job.
less than that doesn't work.
People .. seldom get anything as clean as a dishwasher can.
( NOT recommending that anybody put their 3-D printing bed's sheet through a dishwasher: it might well destroy its surface-chemistry, given how strong dishwasher detergents are )

I have been putting mine through the dishwasher for a few years now with zero issues so far.
