I think that this is probably a bit of an issue with any method as a layer of grease on an internal corner will be difficult to clean out. That's maybe why some of the chemical methods work better as they would de-grease it better. In principle the electricity takes all routes but with limited current flow through the more insulated areas. Perhaps a point to be thought about when the chassis has riveted fixings. Don't electro-plating companies thoroughly de-grease items to be plated first?
As you say, areas behind a fold will get poor application. I suspect with most / all methods.
