Getting wax off trim

Pretty much tried everything. Spent a fortune. Mainly oils just mask the problem. Well just read on another forum that an eraser works. I have some decent architectural grade white erasers...they work quickly and completely remove the wax from any plastic surface. ...gone completely.
In fact this method is so quick and complete you don't need to mask off next time you wax!

Thanks for the tip! I've been using Back to Black to try and remove/mask my errant applications but I've had mediocre results.

Talking It works!

Like you I tried every product to get the wax off. Nothing worked as well and easily as a regular pencil eraser. Keep one in the glove box now just in case.
