Have a flat/satin black painted hood stripe with a few wax spots & streaks that make it look a little shinier in those places vs the rest of the stripe. I've tried wax and tar remover with a little luck. Is there anything else I could try that would help besides a respray?

X2 for dish soap. Just be sure rinse well, and wax the paint around the stripes again, because there ain't any wax there now.
