I had the underbody inspected yesterday by a JLR specialist who also applies Lanoguard. I wanted them to have a look and see if I'd rather replace anything first due to corrosion before applying Lanoguard.
They were impressed by how clean and mint the underbody is which is reassuring (MY18, 26K miles). However they're quoting silly money to have it steam cleaned, prepared and protected with Lanoguard. They really go to town with it, removing wheels, wheel arch liner, it takes a full week. They had a Porsche on the ramp so I could see the process. It's impressive but I'm very familiar with Lanoguard and I know I don't need all that to achieve good protection besides I like DIY.
The trouble is that I can't get the car on my portable ramps which have served me really well with my previous cars and existing SUV.
I can't find a local garage with a rent a ramp service so I'm looking for advice. I thought about jacking the car and resting on the ramps to clean and protect the underbody but I have no experience with a Jack nevermind a suitable one for the F-type.
Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks.
