I have 2 similar jacks myself and I tend to lift the rear of the car both sides together then put the stands u set but leave the jacks in place for safety.
The stainless exhaust unfortunately is just very hard work and very time consuming. I could get it gleaming but after hrs of rubbing !! It’s why on my Nomad I got the laser cut black protection plate so I didn’t have to !!
il bang a picture on here when iv done it, guessing its going to be a tedious process.

Washing is one thing - what about drying? I use a 2800Watt 'pet dryer' (approx £52 on Ebay) for my bike and it's brilliant. Very powerful, if a little noisy. Also use it on my Atom for blowing away any water from around the nooks and crannies/rod ends etc. (don't blow it on the radiator fan blades, or air intake)..
what an idea, iv seen those on car detailing sites for like 200+ never thought to buy a pet dryer, you think it will be of similar power to push the water out?
cheers [mention]autobackup[/mention] il get some ordered, after owning a TVR and the chassis prone to corroding from the salt etc im forever cautious.
