Wax on plastic on lower back bumper

TNicastro519 · 05-08-2012, 05:29 PM

Despite the warning I read on the wax's application directions, I got some wax on it and it apparently absorbed into the porous material and now leaves a light white stain but still noticeable. Any ideas on how to clean it? I immediately tried to use an interior plastic cleaner to no avail.

Done. Thanks to Amazon one click I ordered it with just one click of the mouse. I'll let you know how it works. thanks!

Happy to help. I used it every time I waxed my 2005 Saleen.

Peanut butter also a good option. And no, I'm not kidding. It works awesome.

Uhh, cancel that. It only mask's it, after your first wash it will be visible again. The stuff is garbage to say the least. I have a mini and all around the car is plastic so i have alot of experience with plastic trim cleaners/dressings. Even when taping off it still makes its way under there. Peanut butter, non chunky works really good, No Joke. if you want a more mainstream solution use this with an old tooth brush in the stained area.

I would also buy this after you use pre wow

Works absolute wonders! the product was actually developed by a guy who owns Mini's and kept haveing the same issues every other mini owner does when they wax/detail their car. He is also a full time auto detailer out in California.

Just rub it in vigorously with a cloth and wipe off. Works perfectly.
