    Do you apply wax/sealant to door jambs & inner trunk/hood?

    (and I realize this is "crazy talk" to 99% of the population)

    If not, what do you do to maintain these surfaces, if anything?

    And on a related note, when people apply coatings, do you apply the coating to these surfaces?

    I use sealant on mine but only once a year. Makes it easier to dry more than anything

    Yes. Usually spray wax though.

    No. Just clean with a waterless wash every wash. So, they stay pretty clean.

    Crystal seal. 1x/ year. Only takes ten min.

    Just a quick wipe down after washes to keep it clean and take care of potential water spots. Hit it with Chemical Guys V7 on occasion.

    Some areas in the door jam is hard to reach. Using a brush to clean works, but trying to buff these areas are a challenge. Using Aqua Wax which dries clear solves this problem.
