How to clean out side scoops / "gills"
I’ve looked a lot on the detailing forum, but there seems to be only a lot of discussions about PPF…
We had some snow in my area and my county put down a lot of dirt on the roads. I’ve washed the car twice since and just noticed a really large build up of fine dirt and dust especially in the upper “gill” on both sides. Anybody have a technique or favorite tool the clean that out? Just spray the hose in there, use a long reach soft tool, spray out with air? What do you think? Thanks, David |

I wash them with high pressure water and then stick microfiber cloths in them.

Microfiber cloth and stick your fingers in it?
