What type or brand of cleaner to use to clean underneath the back of the vette? Cradle and all? Thanks.

I use Simple Green mixed with warm water and shot with a Karcher pressure washer. Sunshine Makers (Simple Green's manufacturer) makes a pressure washer concentrate, "Simple Green Heavy Duty Cleaner" which they tell me is actually better for that application that regular Simple Green.
If the dirt/grease is really stubborn, I use a solvent applied with a siphon gun and shop air just to the specific, troublesome area. Sometimes I'll add a little hand scrubbing with a Standard Abrasives "BriteRite" pad. I'll wait 10 min, then use the pressure washer and Simple Green.
Lastly, if there are electrical parts in the area, I'll use my air gun to dry those areas.
