    This is funny really but it works make sure you buy the creamy stuff. I know old buicks don't have a lot of plastic but if you use peanut butter where you may have accidently waxed a black plastic part (door handle, trim or molding) it comes right out.

    Dunno sounds silly just thought i 'd share that tip

    PB has a lot of oil in it. I'll bet that's what takes it off, similar to the oil in WD40 taking caked on dust off.

    I've tried 'em both, and peanut butter is definitely the tastier of the two...a WD40 & J sandwhich just doesn't have the culinary appeal of the classic PB & J, no matter how good that stuff smells.

    wax

    Ok Birge, I'll bite....

    What is the technique? Wipe it on, leave it for a minute, wipe it off?

    you got it

    Yeah I would say thats the best way, it has to do with the oils and or grease in peanut butter. I must say I haven't tried it yet. Heres the link to dodgetruck world where i heard about it.

    If that doesn't work uhh I don't know, Its not all that important just a bunch of Dodge truck owners who have trouble with getting wax on the door handles of their trucks. One guy said that penut butter does the trick quite well.

    Dunno Try it out I guess
