how do you get was off of the textured door handles and bedrails??? and do you tape off the door handles and all before you wax???

 

Quick Detailer and a toothbrush.

Sometimes I tape off areas with blue painters tape.

 

Dupont grease and wax remover works very well, but don't hit your paint with it unless you want to re-wax.

Black WOW seems to take it right off.

Just be careful with even that blue painters tape. It pulled up some paint on my viper hood's "speaker" grills.:o

 

I use Lexol on the plastic every so often. When I get wax on the plastic pieces it wipes right off.

 

I find that when buffing off with a microfiber cloth early enough, it removes it good. I'm sloppy sometimes and surprised that weeks later there is a slight if at all wax film on any plastic. I've been using Eagle One Nanowax for the last few years so that could be a reason, just different kind of wax. My dad swears by Mother's back to black, me I don't care for it. I also use a detailers brush flat or on it's side in circular motions with water, seems to work ok.

Back to Black is okay for wax removal, but that's about it.

 

i got back to black and it worked great you just half to put on alot.

 

I tape all the black plastic areas off. It takes a little time but it makes it a lot easier to apply and remove cleaners and waxes. Of course I never use to do this until I got hooked on this damn site

 

WD40 and a terry towel

 

The last time I detailed my F150 before I traded it I had everything taped off and my neighbor asked what color I was going to paint my truck.

 

And you are going to have a streaky mess after the first rain. You will need to completely buff the crap off if you use it. You won't need to use so much if you use a toothbrush or detailing brush.
