きたない vs よごれる

Can someone explain me, maybe with easy examples, the different usage of both? Thanks!

  1. 汚い is used to describe something that is already dirty, 汚れる is used when something is about to get dirty

    汚いから触らないで

    It’s dirty so don’t touch it

    汚れるから触らないで

    It’ll get dirty so don’t touch it

  2. I think よごれる means getting dirty, used as a verb while きたない means dirty used as an adjective
