I waxed my car a couple months ago and despite my best efforts I ended up getting wax onto a bunch of the trim. I realize now I should have used some tape to mask the plastic off.

With that said, what product/method can I use to finally get rid of the dry wax? I have washed the car multiple times and it has not gone away at all.

There are a few ways to get it off. But first next time use some tape like you said or try some int. dressing. One way to get it off is to use a pressure washer, or a pencil eraser. Or try some of that trim restore product, one is called back to black from oreilys, i think they still carry it. hope this helps.

goo gone - get it at any hardware store.

Try using IPA (isopropryl alcohol) first to remove the dry residue. Don't get it on the body as it will remove any wax. Then use some Poorboys Trim Restorer.

Duragloss Wax Eraser gets my vote.

don't know what product you're using, but a quick detail spray and a MF towel could do it also...depending on how dry and caked on it is

I used back to black and it looked OK for a month or two. Look like hell again though.

I wonder, would a toothbrush and 409 scrub it off?

Doesn't 409 have ammonia? I wouldn't let anything with ammonia anywhere near my paint, or car at all really.

Back to black works.

I used the pencil eraser trick on my buddie's car just this past weekend.

Took like 3 seconds. He was amazed, haha.

This is gonna sound stupid, but use peanut butter. Takes the wax right off while making the trim look great again.
