Removing wax marks form a convertible

Footman614 · 11-28-2021, 04:07 PM

I have a 2019 M850 convertible and I noticed a couple of areas of wax that was rubbed on the convertible top where it meets the body. I don't want to use the wrong product to remove it. Does anyone have any ideas as to what product I need to use? Thank you!

Majority of wax would be removable with dish soap.
If it is a ceramic coating you used, I'd consult a pro

Ensure that you only use the dish soap on the top. I probably get a small bucket and apply the dish soap with a soft toothbrush.

Diluted with how much water?

I generally don't have a specific ratio, for a small amount I'd just use a few drops and about a cup of water. It doesn't need that much.
Key is to ensure you only put the solution with the brush on the canvas, not on paint nor on any seals.

Both Adams and Chemical Guys sell a shampoo that strips wax
