Hey NICO gang, this might sound like a stupid question... but how do you guys routinely clean your door jams? Using a wet cloth will scratch the paint with the dirt on it... and you can't exactly hose it down since the door is open. Stupid question, so I've got my flame suit on ... be easy!

I use an all purpose cleaner if it's really dirty, agitate with a brush, and then hose it down on flat spray setting from an angle. It's tricky!

I clean mine every time I wash my car. Just get in the habit of wiping them down every time and dirt will not build up on it. I also clean under my hood and hatch every time also. I use a micro-fiber cloth.

I use a pressure washer that works great for both trunks and door jambs.
