I'm sure this is more of a newbie-ish wash/wax question, but how do I get the "wax marks" off of the rubber parts of the car (ex. the faux air vents)?

TIA!

As you may already know, Zaino recommends the use of "Dawn" dish soap. This is used to strip off the old wax on the car before starting the process. Try a more concentrated dish soap solution on a cloth and rub on it, then use something like 303 protectant or low gloss ArmourAll to finish off.

 

xviper, you're the only man I know - brave enough - to publicly recommend ArmourAll. But we all know you can brush those flames right off.

 

actually i tried AO car wash wipes yesterday for all those hard to wash places (under the hood, door jams, inside the trunk, inside the gas cap area).. and they work pretty good... I would not use AO protecetant on anything though.... AND i would never flame Xviper as your right he'd put them out fast

 

Hey, I'm open to getting flamed like anybody else.
