wax on rubber

[Capehorn3]

Got some wax, Americana, on the rubber around rear glass and on the plastic cowl in front of windsheild. What are my options to remove?

[Chris@Adams]

APC and a utility towel will do the trick!

What Chris says.  Both of us.

I agree. Also listen to what Gerry said.

 

Next time dress your rubber and plastic with SVRT before waxing, so if you do get some wax on a piece of trim, it will be easier to remove

Thanks Guy's, will do this weekend.

Super VRT before waxing works! Try it!

[Capehorn3]

I did use VRT and blue tape before waxing and couldn't understand the white showing up around 10 days after waxing. At first I thought maybe it was a reaction between the VRT a freind gave me and the 303 Aerospace Protectant I had been using for years. But now I see the white residue is only in spots and a reaction would have been all over. I did get some tape release from the VRT and this is probably where some wax got through.

Maybe that's part of your problem. Did you try to use AP cleaner to remove 303, before applying SVRT?

 

In the past, I had the same problem on trims, when I switched from one product to he other, without stripping out the prior product.

As a follow up I used APC on trim and it removed all wax marks. Reapplied VRT and did a Brilliant Glaze layer on paint, looks so good! Thanks for the advice.

I vote all purpose cleaner too, but I have also used WD-40 before I started using Adams products.
