For the claying, I`ll squeeze/mold it into pieces that`ll fit where I need to use them. For the polishing, I`ll use a stick (e.g., sharpened swab stick or toothpick) to work my MF in there. Gotta be careful you don`t let the stick penetrate the MF and mar the surface though. Sometimes I`ll fray the ends of such a stick so make a sort of "brush". I`ll soak this with QD to soften it and use that for some of the more aggressive work. Don`t try that on soft paint though. FWIW, I like to work tight spots with magnification.



Heh heh the *real* answer (in my book) is to debadge `em ;)

I only got rid of my 3.2TL TypeS badge. I`d leave the Inspire in your case. :cool:

I don`t think there`s an easy route for it. It just takes time and paitence.
