Re: good wax remover?

go to your local body shop supply store and pick up some DX 440 by PPG. put it in a spray bottle and then spray the affected areas, let it sit for maybe 2 mins and then wipe away. Be careful of any undercoating because the 440 will soften it up. (stuff works well for a lot of things)

You might give Dawn dishwashing liquid a try.
