What I did was get a piece of rag (I did this before a wash), and then get like a stick, maybe a screwdriver and get it behind the rubber seal and then run it the whole length of the seal. This should get alot of crap out from behind the seal. With any remaining stuff I'd use G101 or some APC with like a cotton bud, or maybe a small stiff brush.

Wet the car then go round with neat apc on the effected areas, allow to dwell for a few mins then Aggitate with small brush if needed,
Then get your pressure washer and blast along these areas keeping it moving slowely so you get rid of all the crap, check its all gone and give a final rinse.

My newest car had this quite bad, I have a megs detailing brush and a strongish solution of g101 and just sprayed and agitated and blasted off  :smiley:
