Cleaning bewtween badges

[Gold_Digga]

Heya all....anyone know a good way of cleaning in between badges 'spesh the griffin sign?? I've tried cotten buds which is quite effective but i can't get in between the griffins wings as the gaps are way too small an' there's dirt building up gradually :)
It's getting annoying now as i keep the rest of my car so clean - any ideas? :thumbs:
Any advice would be much appreciated - other than to debadge the car (love my badges too much) :mrgreen:

P.s i don't have an obsessive complusive disorder - jst hate the dirt :lol:

Use a paint brush!
Whilst washing the car in the normal just get a smallish, new paintbrush, dip it in your car shampoo and agitate the dirt in and around the badges.

Drive it round in a bag? :lol: :P

Agree with above, mine is never dirty because I clean it every time I notice even the smallest amount of dirt :roll: :mrgreen:

Also agree with NeilRocks - I use paintbrushes to get the crap out from the badges :thumbs:
