I tried to do a search on this but the search engine is currently offline. So here goes. I have the Coastal Metals grill installed but smaller insects do get through the openings and need to be removed from the condensor fins. I mixed up a half bucket of car shampoo and used a plastic toilet bowl brush to easily clean the condensor fins. The brush has plastic bristles which radiate in all directions including out the end. The brush fits easily between the horizontal grill slats and you can use the vertical grill members as a fulcrum if necessary. Also for the more stubborn insect parts or those in the nooks and crannys, a circular rotation of the brush, in place, does the trick.

good suggestion...
i would add to that-
to dry, use the leaf blower technique discussed here many times before.
it will remove almost all water even that which is hidden from sight.
