For normal cleaning, I use Optimum No-Rinse. I can wash the car with less than 1/2 gallon of water. You can even wash it in the garage and get almost no water on theground

You wont damage the paint or clearcoat claying it unless you get a piece of grit in the clay and then yo can scratch it.

Get a"California duster", its like a big mop thing to get dust off. Wont scratch the car and get most of the dust off easily.

Get some decent microfiber towels, wash them with a very basic detergent, no softeners, etc separately form other things. If you have a Costco near you, their MF towels are pretty good and not very $$

Check out Autiogeek.com for lots of how to in washing and detailing
