How do you clean in front of the brake light in the rear glass? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

jshaf · 05-25-2014, 08:26 PM

I noticed there are some streaks from when the tint guy did his install between the third brake light and the rear glass. anyone know a trick to getting in there and cleaning? tried a spatula with a micro fiber rapped around it but it only cleaned a small portion at the top of the area.

I worked in a tint shop, so I have like 8 of these, but I used my little tint triangles and a small thin glass towel to clean it.

Edit: I mean the small thin glass towels wrapped around my tint triangle.

You could probably do the same thing with a square used for tinting.

so you remove the whole rear wind shield/rear glass? sounds like over kill unless I am misunderstanding you.

That couldn't happen, I think he was being sarcastic.

I stole one of my wife's thin plastic angled spatulas and use a thin microfiber..

Doorstop wrapped in towel... Cant get the nitty gritty, but it gets most (if not all) of it.

Metal Spatula with a rag wrapped around it

Plastic won't work.

The pole thing you use to clean barrels of guns that have the open end where you can stick a towel through. Kinda like needle and thread.

An eyelet and a bore rod?

I honestly don't see how that would work.

It's a small little area that needs cleaned. You basically tie the towel around it and clean. It works for me
Something like this
