Default Cleaning around Jaguar badge letters

Hi All.

Does anyone have difficulty cleaning around the Jaguar badge letters on the boot? I can't seem to get clean IN and AROUND the letters. I have tried a soft brush and direct hose pressure. I do not want to loosen the letters. I tried to post a picture, but I keep getting the message "Upload of file failed.", but i am sure some of you have the same issue. I have a black 2015 V8s.

I would appreciate any advise any one might have.

Thanks! Michael

Confirm that your pic is in a jpeg format and that it isn't too large. (keep it under about 500k bytes)

with the car foamed down, just run around all the tight areas with a detail brush - inside filler cap, badges, honeycomb grille, door handles etc

i use the swissvax detail brush. they aren't cheap but in my experience last the longest

No problem at all. I always use Cotton buds for minor detailing around tight areas.

Brushes can, depending on softness/quality cause scratches.

Just be careful, the "J" doesn't seem to stick too well...

TX, I know you took them all off, but you could have just removed the "R" and had a real conversation piece.

I also could have left GUAR and hoped some dumb metal head didn't think I spelled GWAR incorrectly.
