Ok...We all know it cant be helped....Whenever you wax these things, you're bound to get wax on the door handles....No matter how careful you are ...Of course Armor-All wipes clean it up quick, but now after the MONSOON rain this week, the Armor-All is gone, and I have this crappy looking white gunk showing...

What can I use to get that crap off of there, and back to black??

 

Some people say WD-40 will take it off, but Ive never tried it. Its worth a try though

 

I have tried a toothbrush and Spray 9 or Simple Green and worked out all the hazey white slow but sure. Turned out real nice but takes some time.
I found it was slower to come back after such a thorough cleaning.

An eraser gets wax off to.

 

believe it or not- peanut butter works great!

 

it is either by mothers or meguiars and will take all the white gunk off and leave a waxy surface so they dont collect dirt works great on door handles trime pieces etc.

 

Superclean Does the job too!

 

Black shoe polish will work real good also.

A little bleach onna rag will remove it...keep the rag away from yer paint.
A little bleach with your carwash soap will remove old wax so you can brighten up the paint with a cleaner type wax...'jes rinse the bleach off real good before you dry off the paint.

 

Mothers worked great for me on Mom's Truck

 

The question is whether it will work on dad's truck or more importantly, on Herrin821's truck. We EXPECT it to work on mom's truck.

 

peanut butter or starting fluid. no joke.

 

All goos ideas to try...I was afraid of hurting the plastic more when all I want is to remove the wax...I'll give a few a try....Thanx

 

I don't know if I would use wd-40. its a petroleum product, which will degrade the plastic over time, i would think

 

Not sure of the grade of plastic the handles are made of.... keep in mind, the fuel tank is plastic.....
