I had a similar situation a few years ago when we had a drought.
State law allowed no car washing, and at the time I lived along a main road, sure to be busted if I broke out a garden hose and wash bucket.
The loophole in the law was that commercial car washes could stay open, and in Allentown we have a place that does a hand wash and dry for $6.
What I did was had them wash it, then drove a few blocks to a shady side street, and sprayed the car with Meguiar's Quick Detailer.
Not ideal, but better than nothing.
If you really want to run your orbital, have you considered a power inverter or small generator?
I can imagine you are always on the lookout for a source of "free" power ... and water, and shade....
