I have a Honda Ridgeline and as far as the exterior goes I think I have just about everything figured out as far as cleaning and protecting everything. Even have the Chrome Rims and Headlight/Tailight lenses protected now.
The one little task I have been putting off is the front grill. It is predominately black plastic with a few silver painted plastic "bars" across the front.
The black plastic has these little hexagonal shaped holes just barely large enough that I can get the tip of my pinky finger in. The holes along the outer edge are to small for this.
I was thinking Gold Class Trim Detailer for the Black Plastic but for the Silver stuff I am unsure. I could probably even get by with just a simple coat of wax on the silver. I need to put something on them as water spots tend to be an issue here.
Anyway, does anybody got any suggestions as to how best to work on, as in apply cleaner or trim detailer in the small hexagonal holes? I piddled for a quick couple of minutes today trying to get an MF in there but my fingers would not go in with the MF over them.
I could try somethng as simple as maybe putting the MF over a toothbrush or maybe even pickup 1 or 2 of those little foam paint brushes used for trimming, but figured I would post for the heck of it as this seems like one of those sort of topics that others might have some worthwhile things they have tried and proved to be successful.
I hope to get home today and do a little more exterior work then play with the camera. I want to get some fresh pics of all the work I have done. Hopefully the sun wil cooperate. I'll try to remeber to snag a pic or 2 of the grill up close.
