Default Best way to polish SS Louvers?

I guess I should have figured this out in the 7 years I have owned my SPF but any tips on polishing SS louvers? I am fine on the polish/wax part but the unreachable residue at the bottom is killing me.

Good question. Can you removed the louver? I'm not near my car right now, but I recall seeing a cap nut. Pretty sure it would need to be removed from inside the engine compartment.

QTip, soft tooth brush, or a rag rapped around a stick or screw driver.

If you unbolt the louver, can it be removed to the outside of the body? Just curious, as I'd like to remove the driver's side at some point so I can access the hose clamp on the clutch master slave hose.

Once you get them out you can polish yourself after buying the felt bobs and polish etc... Unless it is something you want to do as a sanity check and work on your Toy send them out to the local polisher. Those guys go it so quick and well that it is hard to beat. Check the price from a local polisher before start as a do it yourself.
Just my take... jeff c
