Weekend was very nice and, of course washed and waxed the ML.

Now, how do I get the white wax residue from the black trim parts. I have tried vaseline, peanut butter, etc, and the residue is still there. What's the solution to this mess? Thanks.

On the ML, there is so much damn black plastic trim around the windows, I mask it off before waxing or polishing.
I ususally just hit it with some Zaino Z16 Tire dressing (z16 isa non-greasy pdms based dressing) and that at least covers up the residue for awhile. I havent found any cleners that actually remove the residue from the mls window trim.

Mothers Back To Black. Best stuff I found thus far. Doesn't really treat it, but it cleans it to new. It lasts a while too. I've washed my 300E several times since applying it, no need to re-apply yet. And I only used a little bit. I'd think you could get about a dozen applications out of a bottle. A great investment for 5 US Dollars.
