Getting Wax off of plastic/bumper/etc

[Samjeev]

A few weeks ago I washed my car, using a paste type wax for the first time however now i'm stuck with wax stuck in the texture of the plastic on my bumper, wing mirrors and so on.

I've left it a while at first i was hoping it would come off from a few rain showers (very wishful thinking I know) and i've just tried to get it off manually now, I've tried a few simple things that i thought might dissolve the wax that I had around the house which of course I have only tested in a very discrete area for now (under the wing mirror) in case it damaged the plastic but have not been able to shift the wax what so ever.

are their any suggestions on house hold items/products i can use to shift the wax or even any products i can buy to get rid of it?

Cheers

Have you tried a bit of IPA?

No not yet, I tried a bit of Tamiya model paint thinner but I don't believe it contains IPA

I think i'll try Nut oil and WD40 when I get a chance
Thanks for the info

All sorted now.
£1.89 Ground nut oil, Brushed it on with an old paint brush, left it for 5 or so minutes then washed it off with hot soapy water and the wax is gone.
