As far as the underside, if you are not planning on removing the undercoating, I would power wash it to get the grease off and then hit the underside with a light coat of under coating to make it all look uniform. Use the 3M stuff and it comes out real nice.

Don't get squashed under the car.
Well you're always welcome to make the drive! Ill buy whatever beer you want! It's just me and my Dad helping out. I was in Madison over the weekend for the big10 wrestling tourney...it was about 3 hours exactly.

I'm got a cherry picker, some floor jacks and a 2 ton chain hoist to use....i'm not 100% sure exactly how i'm going to get it done yet?? Iv'e never done this before. I think i'm going to do one end at a time with the cherry picker and set it up on some 4X4's and cinder blocks

I'm definitely not removing any undercoating. I don't have time for that. I do have a power washer though and could hit it tomorrow after I get the body off and spray it in the morning. I wonder how long it takes to dry?

Does the 3M stuff come in a spray can? I don't have an air compressor good enough to run a spray gun. The compressor is literally older than my GTO....haha

I'm going to try my hardest to not get squashed....promise
