Cleaning under the emblems
See THIS for an example of what I am going to say.
How do get the tight spots in the emblems clean, this black stuff really close to the badge in a corner.
Or from between the letters on the script on the back bumper.
It's driving me crazy

Gotta be something easier than that.
This is the hood and the rear bumper, neither of which are very easy to get the screws.
Fuel door, no probs, these two, I'll live with dirty.

I use a tooth brush with soft brissils with a little wax on it for those tight areas. Then a clean one to get the wax build up out. You can even put a layer of say a white t-shirt between the brissils and the car for better cleaning. A single layer of a t-shirt is thin, but can collect alot of dirt. The wax will break up the dirt better than dry, and not dig the dirt into the paint.
I think you'll find that to be what you are looking for.

If your going to remove the emblem from your hood, it's not too hard. Just make sure the motors cold 
And like others said, keep a magnet handy. You don't want to drop one of the nuts down inside the hood while your taking it off. Thats the hardst part...
