Paste wax & textured plastic

[euphoric1]

anyone have any tried and true tips to remove paste wax from textured plastic? Crosstour I purchased someone was heavy handed with the paste wax and now have dried paste wax in the black textured plastic parts, looks like hell and would like to clear it out. Shoot2kill turned me on to Meguiars Insane shine which I use on all hard surfaces without any worries. Any recommendations to remove paste wax without damaging surface would be greatly appreciated.

Try a old style eraser. The kind from the OLD days.

Power wash but lay off decals

Rubbing alcohol & a microfiber cloth, or a degreaser with microfiber cloth or any of the aforementioned with a nylon brush. Perhaps some warm water and Dawn dish soap.

Maybe WD40.

have you used it before? will it hurt the plastic, make it brittle?

Rp7x is a polishing freak. My guess is he’s on the right track.

When riding off trail find some low hanging pine tree branches with soft needles and drive through them at a good rate of speed.

much appreciated!, thanks for heads up on brand, I just know some chemicals can do nasty things to plastics that aren't visible. Thank you again!

What is your recommendation for light branch scratches?

There is such a thick layer of wax buildup on Rp7x sleds that it’s impossible to scratch LOL

Maybe try heat gun, wiping right after, just a thought.
