I'd like to get underneath my car with soap and jet wash to clean suspension arms, underside of engine etc. Happy to don overalls and do this myself, or pay someone to do it. Does anyone know of a place - preferably in the Oakville/Burlington area - where I could do this?

Thanks..

I have searched for the same with no luck. Personally I think steam is the way to go, not high pressure water. A light coating of simple green then steam it off.

I actually just ordered a Wagner 915 steamer and will be attempting to clean 27 years of road grit off my underside and suspension shortly. If it works I may be able to help you. Plus I have a lift in my Garage.

My plan is to drape a plastic sheet down both sides of the car and on the garage floor so all the crap washes out onto my drive and to the storm sewer.

Thank you Adamant1971 - PM on its way

Princess Auto (no affiliation) has a very strong industrial degreaser that you can buy by the jug. It's works well diluted too. I sprayed the stuff (with gloves and mask as its caustic) to the dirty underbits and let it dwell. Then a little wire brush and elbow grease does wonders to clean all the nasty stuff.

Thanks for the pointer, Stig - will check this stuff out..

To really clean the underside, you not have to remove all the detachable plastic areo panels from underneath first so a lift would be in order.
Otherwise it's kinda moot.

Now that's what I want my underside to look like ^

I prefer removing everything.
