    Wax splattered on black plastic trim

    While applying wax (using a machine) I didn't notice at the time but it splattered little white dots of wax on some black plastic trim above the chrome bumper of my Ram 1500. Is there any way to get this off without scratching (scrubbing) the plastic? It has a semi-coarse texture.

    Thanks
    Rut

    Yes.

    You can use a 50/50 mix of isopropyl alcohol and water, or buy a wax removal product such as McKee's wax remover for plastic. And, it's ok to scrub it.

    Follow it up with McKee's trim restorer. You'll be very impressed with the outcome.
    It is no coincidence that man's best friend cannot talk.
