    No steamer here too but if the jambs are bad.
    Before washing the car I spray them with waterless or APC run over them quickly with a toothbrush and rinse with water on very very low pressure, takes only 5 mins to do them all.After washing the car or if the jambs aren't too bad to start with I spray them with waterless wipe with my door jamb dedicated chamois and then a quick wipe with a dry cloth to bring out the shine.That first times always the hardest but gets quicker with practice.
    Yes I get my waterless by the drum,but hey should see my door jambs. Lol

    Re: How to clean door jams?

    I use Meg's APC Plus. It works for me, seems to be safe for paint. But it does leave streaking behind, so as others mentioned a quick detailer wipe down will help and so will a spray wax.

    Same here. I rarely need to use my steamer on door jambs.

    I use my chamois after drying the car. Just wipe them down and they stay nice and clean. I do this after every wash

    Just a wipe down with MF after wash is usually enough. If they are bad, I steam those suckers. Usually will hit them with spray wax or detail spray, whatever the rest of the car is getting that day. Once my Permanon arrives, I am going to try that or Opticoat.
