Default Who can clean undercarriages in this area?

I don't go through car washes for a variety of reasons. Is there somewhere that can clean my undercarriage for me, or am I stuck putting the car up on jack stands and doing it myself? I blew a valve cover gasket and there is old-car-rustproofing (oil) everywhere.

Why not do the undercarriage cleaning at a drive through car wash and instead of stopping for the rest, just drive right through?

To be honest, the last time I was in one they didn't even look like they do today. Is there a way to just do the undercarriage in a car wash?

There is a car wash (hand not auto) on vb and birdneck. They offer full show detailing. Not sure how much they charge for under carriage though. Old guy named Paul runs it

Jackstands with angled pressure washer wand, using the simple green degreaser will do the best job.

Depends on how clean you want it done.
