I am impressed, now how about some pictures of your spotless Porsche!

Does the Griot's waterless cleaner work well enough to be a frequently used substitute for regular wash?

I think Griot's products are as good as any and I imagine their waterless cleaners will work, but I'd be quite hesitant to use any waterless wash on a nice car with a good finish that had anything more than light dust on it. And if just light "garage" dust, something such as Griot's Speed Shine works wonderfully if used with a proper microfiber - Speed Shine has lots of lubricity. It's pretty amazing stuff and I've used it without any issues for many years. I love it.

By the way, welcome to Carpokes!

If your car is not super dirty, yes. If it is dirtier, rinsing first is a good idea if you can. Griot’s makes good products, but some of the concentrated products such as Optimum No Rinse or McKees N914 give you the option of mixing your own rinse less or waterless solution.

I use a CR Spotless water system for rinsing. These work great! All you do is rinse it and leave it and it dries spotless.

In terms of a high quality electric pressure washer i don't think anything comes close to a Kranzel. Expensive but lasts forever and does an incredible job.
