I tried Mr. Clean Magic Erasor and it will remove most of the wax.
To remove almost or all of the wax/polish that I had on my work van I used Duragloss #481 Wax Eraser.
I think that I used it along with a soft brush to get into the textured part of the bumpers and trim.
Did a very nice job.
I'm thinking about picking up some of the Rubber & Flat Black Dressing #271 to se if it will make it look like new.
All the Duraglos products sem to be nice.
Magic Eraser can be found anywhere : Walmart, Target, local pharmacy (CVS), K-Mart,

I have had good luck with both of these and a soft toothbrush.

Peanut Butter is no joke. Someone else recommended the xmt pad cleaner, which I never considered but makes perfect sense:cheers:
APC and a short brissle paint brush works pretty good. Killer, can you use penut butter to remove tar as well? i saw some commercial on TLC about that.

My girlfriend has a Honda Element, and those thigns are 1/4 plastic. She waxed it and got a fair deal of wax on the plastic, used peanut butter and it took it right off.

the oils is peanut butter can do alot ... I do however prefer Poorboys Bug Squash for tar. And yes, I too have found Pinnacles XMT Pad Cleaner to also remove wax residue on trim.
Soon we will discuss toothpaste (paste) as an light abrasive polish for glass.
