Cleaning badges and cracks when going rinseless

[georgez]

Wanted to see what other people are doing to clean the badges and trim edges(window edges, headlight edges, brake light edges, etc) when doing a rinseless wash.

Do you clean these areas first, before the rest of the paint? What do you use as your cleaning solution - rinseless soap or APC with a soft brush?

I use rinseless wash solution and different things really. Most of the time to be honest, I stick a credit card inside a microfiber towel and go to town. For badges, I use a q-tip wrapped in a microfiber towel to do those.

Do you do the soak the badges and edges with the rinseless solution first?

Ya, I generally do. It's best to always pre-soak, period. Gives the solution time to encapsulate the dirt.
