Default Removing Swirl X from Plastic

I recently was applying Meguiars Swirl X on my car and some of it was inadvertently on my wipers and black molding.
i didn't notice it, and now it's not coming off. any suggestions?
thanks! carshow tomorrow... have to look good

1. blot it with a damp rag so that it gets moist again, when moist try to remove it
2. then try a carnuba wax- quick drying is what i would use, like p21s. rub it on and buff out immediately.

if that doesnt work, you might need to reapply the swirl x to the black part, but not the rubber. if its on the rubber, use vinylex or 303.

(and report back!)

what about straight rubbing alcohol to remove the scratch x and then cover with 303 or something
