I got some Collinite 915 on my black trim last night. Any clue how to get it off ?

An ink eraser will work

While applying CarPro Perl on my black trim, some of which had dried wax on it, I learned the Perl melts the wax off, very simply. It works.

I've already tried the eraser without success.

I would try a chemical based pre-wax cleaner. Wolfgangs PPE took some dried up wax from over a year ago on some of my textured trim.

Haven't tried it yet, but I understand from a recommendation made to me for a similar question that simple Isopropyl Alcohol is very effective for removing old wax from trim. Couldn't paste a "clickable" link, but, if you do a search, there are articles.

You might want to Try some mineral spirits on a towel. Do a small test spot . Don't want to melt any plastics. Rub lightly. Don't want to flatten any textured plastic. Rinse well once done.

Meg's APC+ or M39 heavy duty vinyl cleaner has always worked for me
