How to remove Wax residue on plastic trim

[ShakeandBake]

Hi all,
JUst bought a 98 Cobra Convert. and the guy that had it before me had it detailed, but did a crappy job of it...meaning there is wax residue on the black trim. How do I remove that? Thanks in advance.

Try peanut butter. I know your saying, "what the hell" but that's what I 've heard. Ask the Zaino Bros.

Yup! Pick up a bottle at your local AutoZone or other parts store...works great.

Using peanut butter is a great way to get the wax marks off of the plastic trim.

A friend of mine told me about it several years ago and I tried it.

Works Great !

Take a small amount of creamy/smooth peanut butter and put it in the microwave for a few seconds to soften it up.

Work it in the area you want to remove the wax. It takes the swirl marks right out. Once the peanut butter dries and glazes over you can buff it off very easily.

If you have a lot of swirl marks to remove you may have to put the peanut butter in the microwave several times to keep it soft.

I heard about the use of peanutbutter, you can also use any window
cleaner that has ammonia and a stiff bristle tooth brush it will also
take off the wax residue.
