1. Peanut Butter
2. Mothers back to black
3. A medium cut compound like 3M Perfect it II

:DGlad it worked out for you. An old trick I learned from Autopia.com. I just wonder what was the person thinking that tried this the first time... [8D]

Impressive. Super hero-like even! Very nice call. I had heard of PB for cleaning lots of things, but never wax on a car. Thanks for the tip!!!

Peanut butter actually works better at removing wax residue than Mothers B2B. Mothers takes quite a bit more work and has greater limits at what it will do. Compounds require even more work and you have to work in very small sections anduse the right amount of pressure and skill at removing the compound along with the residue. Peanut butter is a simple apply, rub and remove. Yeah your car smells like peanut butter (until cleaned up) but is that so bad? Everybody likesPB...:D
