Cleaning that area by the rocker panel

How are you guys getting to that spot where the rocker panel meets the rear quarter? I have tried getting a microfiber rag in there, but still does not seem to get it clean.

Yeah, I know it is a crappy phone picture in the dark garage. I'm sure you know the area without a pic anyway.

Use a tooth brush or a paint brush shortened for more rigidity

Q-Tips with a little spray wax should do the trick.

Take a credit card or plastic squeegee. Be sure to wrap it in microfiber towel and wedge it in the crevice to clean.

Micro Fiber and a Bondo Spreader works great.
I have access to a compressor and blow that area as well as the louvers out after washing. Some spray wax keeps it looking pretty good.

Thanks for all of the suggestions. I used a card wrapped in a microfiber rag. First sprayed the area with quick detail. After sprayed with quick wax. It had really been bugging me that I could not get that area clean and yet it was so visible.

I did not go with the bondo spreader since as a web developer, that is not a tool in my arsenal.
