I have about 2 months before it will be in use and its being stored in shed outside until I clean it. I have to order a bunch of stuff from reptile basics so figure I should pick up some F10 as well.

Should I clean using dawn dish soap first and then 100% ammonia or ammonia first then dawn? Then my last step will be the F10SC? Since it is used and dirty should I do this complete process a few times before introducing a bp to it? Or just use Dawn and/or F10 again a few days before I get her?
