    Wax buildup around pinstriping?

    I have wax (actually not sure what product it is since I`ve used about a million) build up around on the pin stripes of my vehcile.

    Any suggestion on how to remove this safely?

    The wax residue around pin stripes and moldings came off a friends car with the soft toothbrush method Don has suggested. I did use liberal amounts of a quick detailer to help prevent scratches. Seemed to work good. The QD was Meg`s Final Inspection, but I think any decent QD would work just as well.

    ps. Another of the great things about AIO, UPP, S100, no white residue. C.

    Thanks for the suggestions.

    Since we`re talking about pinstripes ...

    While polishing with a PC and polishing pad at speeds 4 to 5, do you have to worry about damaging pinstripes?
