OK, so I am taking one of two easy ways out.
I am about to have a Birthday, and my devoted girlfriend wants to get me something big to go with my 914. But NOT a new paintjob! What a gal, no? So I look under the car today and realize, hey it's a driver, but IT IS DIRTY. What would work best? A McCullough pressure wash system for 160 or a Ewbank Pressure System for about 100? She will go to Amazon and order it. I am figuring how far can I push the envelope? This is to get all the grime off of as much as possible, because I can't lay on my back all day every day. There is just a bunch of grime that has to go. There is no rust, so getting to the paint layer is what I am looking for. I know I could do it by hand, but we are talking 100 hours. If I could do it in 10 with a tool or system, thus I am definitely taking the lazy bastard way out. It is either that or spend 300 or more on a detailer that really wants some hard work. I am not above or below taking a recommendation on someone in SoCal. It would be one less thing in my densely packed garage. Yes, I would let someone else do it this one time.There is an ad in Pandemonium lately on a guy that will clean the undercarriage for not so much, but this really needs cleaning, and this could run into some bucks. Ideas of all kinds welcome, except the one where I am supposed to do it ALL on my back by hand. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif) THANKS!
