29 years of crud

Any better ideas on how to clean the underside of an old car? Without a lift, just on jack stands.

My method: With rubber gloves on - Simple Green, scrub brush (like for vegatables), Then my Scunci/Singer steam cleaner. Then more Simple Green, scrub brush/tooth brush. Then more steam clean.

Every 20 minutes or so crawl out from under the car, refill the steam cleaner, clean my glasses, wring the wet crud from my cloths and get back under the car for more.

Very time consuming, but a certain satisfaction involved in making something unclean clean.
