Rhino RampsMAX for the win as long as you are not trying to use them on polished concrete.

My floor jack has a rubber puck in the lift point. Sometimes I will use a block of wood depending on where and how much I am lifting.

How are tall lifting your trucks to do work without marring the frame wax? Rubber pads? Are you just using the suspension? Pucks?

The frame wax sticks to rubber pads and comes off on the pads. At least when its fresh and new. Maybe it hardens over time. I saw that there is touch up wax avaialble somewhere.

I messed mine up messing around with catch can install. Drove me nuts so I bought this. Since I coated the damage with oil draining the catchcan I never used this. I make myself nuts sometimes!

Works but its not the same compound as the wax, is it? Should be able to find gm frame wax if one does some searching.

I have used this Sprayon film where needed.

That’s exactly my issue, I’ve tried rubber and wood too but inevitably it’ll wear it off. I have cans of the WoolWax aerosol that’s OK for touching up spots but I’m not trying to make a quick oil change into a big ordeal.

Wish there were some better approved lift points…

Maybe have to make our own lift points by cleaning the wax and coating with normal undercoat.

If just doing oil change, I just used two 2x10 and screwed them together as in picture drive vehicle on makes truck high enough to get under and get job done and don't have to use jack.
