how should i get the zaino off the black rubber and plastic?

zaino'd the truck a couple times so far, very pleased! however, I inevitably get white residue on the black rubber and plastic trim around the windows and on the tailgate handle, etc etc... anyone know a good method/product to clean these surfaces?

thanks!
Wes

Don't Laugh,

but some peanutbutter and a toothbrush. Take a spoon of peanutbutter and put it on a paperplate, stick it in the microwave for about 30-40 seconds. Take it out to the truck with your toothbrush, an clean that wax off your plastics. I know your laughing, but try it. You'll see why.

One more thing, in case you want to move away from peanut butter, I thoroughly endorse Mothers' Back to Black, specifically for such things as removing wax residue. Works like a charm, just got my first bottle.

Believe it or not, the whole reason I stopped the peanut butter is because I had ended up using it all on my truck, and was pissed one day when I wanted to actually eat the stuff. I was like, screw this, I'm not putting any more food on my truck, only powerful petroleum distilate products that will leave me writhing in agony if I consume them.

To me, Back to Black just covers-up the problem. When it rains, it comes off real easy, an if it rains alittle bit, it runs down the sides of the truck and leave marks on the truck, like runs. I'm still playing the field. When I find the right combo, I'll lets ya's know.
