Hi, I have recently bought a mercedes clc and there is one area of the car that i cant seem to clean up.
The speaker grill looks to have had something wet and muddy rubbed against it in the past and the dirt has entered the small perforations of the grill, I cant seem to get rid of it!

Does anyone have any tips on how I can do this?

I have tried using a fine brush and soapy water but dont want to get it too wet in case i damage the speaker.

Thanks in advance

I think, not actually touched a CLC before though, that the way the grilles are clipped into the door card and you might have to remove that and pop it out from the back.

Tedious, but I agree that ****tail sticks/cotton buds are the way forward unless you're up for taking them out.

Would if he totally saturated it but, to an extent, they're a little bit weatherproof and withstand small amounts of condensation/run off into the doors in everyday life.

I'd say a microfibre cloth or similar soaked in apc and just hold it against the grille to soften/loosen the dirt. Rub off what you can then get the rest with a nailbrush or buds/toothpicks
