How do you remove wax from plastic? I have waxed my car over three times over the past few weeks trying to build up a good layer of wax. I was looking at my car today and noticed dried up wax on certain plastic part and weather stripping. How do you get it off. I tried using alcohol, dawn and water, bug and tar remover, and even simple green. HOw can I get it off? 
That really sucks...I've had wax on some of my plastic for months.

Re: How do you remove wax from plastic? People say peanut butter (I tried, doesn't work).
Alcohol (tried that, doesn't work on old wax)
White vinyl drafting eraser, haven't tried that (found at office supply stores).
3M Refresh Vinyl/Leather cleaner/protectant.
There are other smaller brand name products that will work but they are all mail order and it's too much of a hassle.
