i wash my door jam when i wash the car. use your cleaning mitt and the bucket of soap while your washing your car. wash the jam and then just rinse the jams with you hose very gentle. then dry with absorber chmois. then i wax the jams. i owned a detail co in my younger days for 6yrs and this is the best method in imho.

The only thing I would add, is to wash them last.
So you don't transfer anything nasty to the rest of the paint.
Then just wash the mitt after.

Meguiar's spray detailer and a microfiber cloth work great for the interior.
