Sorry in advance to the OP for the derail, but... if there's any dust on the car, doesn't it end up with micro-scratches everywhere if you just use this method rather than washing the dust and dirt off beforehand?

Fair question I think given the claim made by the OP. Very hard to believe a car has only seen water twice in its entire life. I'm also interested to know how the vehicle was cleaned.

I still have yet to master the "not allowing my car to get dirty" part. I feel like mine gets dusty before I'm even done drying it. It's a real testament to cleanliness that the OP's client managed to get that car dirty enough to wash only two times in 16 years. I need to park mine in his garage!
OK, I'll stop crashing the OP's thread now. Sorry again!

Less then full enjoyment some would say, it was the car not me and was rewarding in another way.

993 content: Our '96 SY 993 C4S was never washed with water nor was the '98 Cab. Ever.
Our '97 C2S was washed with water, but only because we drove it home in snow instead of shipping it so we HAD to give it a water bath....
The Concours bug is hard to kill. GO waterless.

From forum guidelines, by John D.

"If you are not a Rennlist Sponsor and Promote....
Lately, Rennlist has had a number of businesses and "marketers" soliciting their wares in threads and posts. Some are veiled, whilst others are more brazen. Since Rennlist is the single largest Internet site dedicated to Porsche automobiles and enthusiasts, it is bound to happen. But.......
To be clear, Rennlist would not exist except for paying Sponsors and Members - and they, along with us - feel it is unfair that they subsidize non-Sponsor sales and marketing efforts, often times with competing products with Rennlist Sponsors. In short, if you are not a Sponsor, the Rennlist Charter prohibits commercial posts to the Forums.
What is commercial solicitation? For example...
If you post We/our/my company has... - you are selling something....
If you post We/our/my product is... - you are selling something....
If you post We/our/my customers'... - you are selling something....
If you post We/our/my will be announcing... - you are selling something....
If you post We/our/my test results for our... - you are selling something....
If you post We/our/my can make or supply that... - you are selling something....
If you/your company/product would like to have your unaffiliated/unbiased customers talk about your product - they are more than welcome to do so. However, as a commercial vendor with a sales intent - you are not.
Further, you are more then welcome to participate simply as an individual enthusiast - BUT NOT as a vendor/sales agent with a sales agenda. As well - a "Rennlist Member" does not broker you being a "Rennlist Sponsor" and acting as such, no more than being a Member of a car club entitles you to receive a free commercial full-page color advertisement in their monthly publication.
Finally - if you would like to become a Sponsor - the entry level flat rate is $125 per month, payable three months in advance for not less then one year. Your business will be listed as a Rennlist Sponsor on the Sponsor page without a banner in rotation - and your title changed to reflect your support of this site. You may PayPal your payments, fax a credit card or email jmunson@rennlist.com or admin@rennlist.com for other payment or Sponsor plans (such as a rotating banner, dedicated forum Sponsorship, etc.).
Until you become a paid Sponsor, please understand your "advertisements" will be either edited or deleted, as it's neither "fair" to those who support this site - nor "us", the Rennlist community.
My thanks for your understanding,
John D."
