Found this on what people who water-wash their car do, so I assume it's the same type of stuff?

air compressor to blow out water from any nooks and crannies, after making sure in particular to get (with a towel):

- bottom corners of the front trunk, since water travels from top corners to bottom.
- inside edges of the window trim
- the black plastic vent plugs in the door jams
