How to get wax off window moulding

ok, so i just waxed my car.

Got wax on some spots of the black moulding around windows, in between roof and doors, like the black plastic parts. How do you get that off???? its brutal; so hard. i was scrubbing for an hour and got some of it off only. Any help from the detailers??? thanks!

Isopropyl. 50/50 which is rubbing alcohol. Dillute it down 1:1 with distilled water and you shouldn't have a problem removing it.

Cheers,
Nick

From what I heard from a friend, you could use any Maguair tire cleaner products which I've tried and only works temporarily...but I'll try that rubbing alcohol solution.

i dont think we're talking about the same kind of moulding :P

thanks for your help nick, cheers

orson.octavius is some ****** spammer who i just reported, hopefully they will cut off his nuts.

Anyhow, there is molding restoration crap at Canadian Tire. I have used it before, it really reminds me of Armor All really.

I used it to get rid of the white smudges of car wax.
