Small rock, debris stuck

Nomana · 04-24-2016, 04:56 PM

Hi
After driving 5 days after car wash, i can see small rock stuck in between front lower grille and bumper (center and sides where foglamp located)

Small rocks and debris are stuck in the edges of grilles and bumper contact. I never seen this before or maybe i never noticed. But only 5 days driving in city, i dont i understand why they're so much.

BTW how can I get rid of them?

Rinse with power washer, that should blow it away.

I tried power washer, good result but still have some stubble left. I need big cleaning day for my car somehow, so busy these days.

Thanks

I agree. I miss detailing my car the entire day lol. Busy with work as well and not enough time to show our love for these cars.

Try canned air

Nomana · 05-05-2016, 12:43 AM

I will definitely try toothbrush and canned air, the second one is not common here where i live. Will come back with result.
Thanks

Or, if you have access to a small air compressor and the correct "cleaning" nozzle, you could use that in place of "canned" air. Definitely a soft brush to loosen the debris, though.
