I usually use a wetwipe on my sweaty areas.

When i done mine. I used some high strentgh all purpose cleaner, a scrapper, and a jet wash. And about 10 cans of brake cleaner.

 

I did have it on a 2 post ramp, which made it easy, if very messy :s

I then white stonechipped it all. Id taken the fuel lines, brake lines, hanbrake cables etc off though.

That looks nuts DK, well done mate.

 

I'm not going to buy axle stands just to clean the car though mate.
