Detailing Underside of Concourse Car
Discussion
I have a concourse car, and was wondering if anyone has detailed the underside of a concourse car. I want to drive the car and inevitably it will get dirty underneath.
Is it possible to hire a ramp?...Is there some form of gentle steam cleaner that I can gently apply to remove any dirt....or other method?
I am not averse to DIY, but also does anyone know of a business that offers this kind of service. Many thanks in advance.

To detail the underside of a vehicle you will need many different products / chemicals lots of time and to make it easy some way of lifting the car up.
quickly off the top of my head you will need , tar and glue remover, all purpose cleaner , maybe petrol, IPA, jet wash or steam cleaner, degreaser, loads of cloths and long rubber gloves.

Excellent 
If you look at my profile you will see I have a bit of a classic. Sometimes when I'm underneath and working on the engine I think it would be nice if it was clean like the concours cars but with 55 years of accumulated grease and oil it's daunting. Is this something you offer as a service or is it just that you do it to your own cars?

Its something we do offer a service for , we dont have it on our website as a price menu as it would be impossible to do that "price menu" as each car will be so different.

when and if i get time will update the kds website, still to upload cars from 2-3 years ago , and got plans for the future of adding the restoration gallery page and price lists
