This is a pain in the butt, how do I get rid of the old, dried-up wax (or whatever else it could be) outta the vents w/o scrubbing? Any products I could just spray on?
Thanks
 
It looks, to me, like compounding residue.... which actually isn't wax but a 'white powder'.

Do you know what product it is in there?
 
I have no clue...when I bought her, she came that way...I just assumed it was wax...
I used a cut-up credit card to scrape some of that stuff off, but its a PITA...
 
Wrap your credit card with a washcloth and it should just wipe out of there.

If its wax build-up it should remove with a concentrated solution of warm water and tooth or paint brush
 
I've tried the CC trick, but it's slow going that way...I'm also not sure if it is "old dried up wax". Warm soap and water won't phase it...Also, when I started scraping it, paint chips started coming off as well...so I decided to just live with it, unless there is a solution that could just safely remove it...
