u gotta hose it out when its wet
when it set hard it lock onto the fins and u go to washe it out and the fins rip apart
beth thing to do would be remove it and wash it witha garden hose not to high pressure and just sit there with a bit of wire and poke the mud out

I wouldn't put wire anywhere near it. Just use a dust pan brush with a low pressure hose
