Wax On Bedrails

I wish I would have read about the problems people were having with waxing their trucks before I started, what a mess.

Dover,

Try a toothbrush and Rubbing alcohol, it worked fine for me. You need the toothbrush to get into the texture though.

Try "Back to Black" from Mcguires. K-Mart carries it. Seems to work great for problems like this.

Just be glad that you don't own an Avalanche. The lower half of the truck is made of plastic!! I don't know how a guy could keep from getting wax all over that stuff. Besides that, they are ugly buggers.

Actually the Avalanche might be very easy. Just use a belt sander. It would be very fast and wouldn’t change the looks of the cheap plastic.

I tape the plastic edges with "blue" masking tape to avoid the problem. I use it on the wiper cowl, bed, tailgate handle and the bottoms of the door glass. just takes a few minutes and saves the clean-up hassles.
