Default white wax residue removal ???

Gooday guys, don't come on this part of the Forums often and i have a question that could very well have been asked before.

Is there a majical product, or a new way of removing white wax residue from the black fender flares or any other plastic on a D2 ???? I've been using Mother's back to black and apply it in a circular motion with an old tooth brush, and it works, but just wondering if an easier trick is known to men, besides not waxing

Will the black WOW take the residue off, or is it for shine only ???

scrubbing with a foam pad and black wow will remove it , but I find either alchohol or 3m to remove it and then use black wow to clean it and protect from further residue

I agree with this one. I already done this and it works. The Black WOW will protect it from futher residue.

for a cheap fix use peanut butter (creamy).
seriously, just wet the black trim, scrub on peanut butter with your hand, then rub it in with a rag.
it works perfectly.
we used this technique when i used to detail cars back in the states.

I have used the Peanut butter trick for years. I have tried all the other products and nothing comes close. Creamy is the best but... I bought some low fat (also low flavor) crunchy that was gross so it went out to the garage. Still does the trick, just not as easy to apply.
