Remove dry wax?
In the bottom of the grill i have dried wax in the corners on the holes. How do i remove this since my fingers/ a rag dont fot?
|
Try a toothbrush. That's what I use in hard to reach areas.
|
Thatll work on month old dry wax?
|
Iso and some acid brush
I-Tapatalk |
Does your wife have one of those little household steamers ? Steam will do the trick without leaving scratches. I use a commercial VX5000 but one of those little teapot type steamers will do the trick.
|
no, im only 22. me and my roommate dont even own an iron lol. ill try the toothbrush 1st and hope its that simple
|
Also try q-tips. If you're still not having any luck, go to a well-stocked auto supply store and look for a tool especially designed to get into small corners. It looks like a thick pencil with a rubber tip at one end and a soft brush at the other.
And to avoid a repeat, modify your waxing technique. For those areas use instant detailer or one of the modern spray-on waxes that don't leave residue. Or if you want to stick with paste wax, then don't apply it directly but instead use what's left on the rag after applying and rubbing off the main panels. Oh, and yes, it will work on old wax. Wax breaks down with time, particularly if exposed to UV rays. That's why it is necessary to re-wax frequently :) |
91% ISO Prop alcohol and light agitation, be sure to reprotect after.
|
Toothpicks can also be handy in certain situations.
|
Wd40 on a brush is good for taking off wax
|
Unless you know what you're doing, I wouldn't suggest using a brush! Just try using some All Purpose Cleaner and/or some Alcohol with a soft towel and only use soft pressure allowing the product to soften and dissolve the reminants.
|
it's on black plastic, not the paint tho. a brush will still mess that up?
