    Dude...I just removed 17 year old wax from my old Silverado that I put on when I was a young man. It also works for the mildew or what ever it is, I was just about ready to start looking for new trim. I can't thank you enough. :-)

    Can't believe it! I've been struggling to remove wax from the trim on my wife's Mazda for a year. 2 erasers for 48 cents at walmart and all the residue was gone in a couple minutes!!!!! Thanks

    OMG, IT WORKS! I have used several products to remove wax from the plastic sections on my wife's Honda Element and nothing worked until I saw your eraser method.. No way I thought, nothing could be that easy and cheap, but it worked. I went over all the front end and it looks brand new. If anyone has ever owned an earlier Honda Element you know how much plastic there is. AGAIN THANKS!!!

    Been detailing my cars since 1985.....Toyota Celica.....Toyota highlander....Volvo 850 and now finally Tesla Model X. Those White plastic trim stains have been impossible to remove. I tried almost everything and nothing worked....until now!!!!! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!

    You are an absolute legend! Saved me big time. I have a lease car and try to take good care of it (it’s someone’s else’s property, right) I gave it a good wax and it left dreaded marks on black trim! This technique was the only technique that would work!! Thank you millions! I used a plastic ‘back to black’ spray after and it looks brand new now. Even when the spray wears off you can no longer see the excess wax! 😊

    Wow, this works amazingly well. I've had wax stains on my motorbike for a couple of years that I couldnt get off. The eraser took it off in seconds. Such a simple solution. Thanks Mate

  • @bruinstickets165
    @bruinstickets165 4 роки тому

    Wow this is fantastic. Every time I polish my car I get some on the black plastic molding. No matter how careful I try to be there seems to be no way to keep it off of the plastic when you polish the areas where the metal and the molding meet. I had several years of wax build up on the plastic. The eraser really works. Amazing!

  • @QueenoftheBeez
    @QueenoftheBeez 5 років тому

    OMG! It worked!!! I'm so happy. It even took off old baked in wax from the paint too. You just have to buff in circles the eraser marks after it removes the old wax from the body paint. It seemed to loosen/warm the old wax. Them rub with a cloth in circles and Wha-La a shine where the old dried up wax was. Of course it took the wax right off the plastic trim right away. No buffing needed. Just rub off the pieces of the eraser left behind. I used Pearl White eraser. This was a God send, thanks!!!

    Oh dear! I just spent days polishing and fixing up the body work on this "new to me" BMW. Then I realized the polisher had left white "stain" over the plastic trim on the wheel wells. I thought I was screwed...I have not tried it yet, but this looks like magic! Thanks man!

    This was a lifesaver! We let a fellow that needed work wax our new truck a year ago and he got wax all over the black trim and it's looked terrible ever since. We are selling the truck and had to get the was off and this worked like a charm! Thank you!

    I just saw this video moments ago and I went outside to try this trick on my car with a pencil I had laying around. I was so pleased to find out how well this worked for me. It took the wax right off. I've been wondering for the last two months how I was going to get the wax off of my plastic trim. I'll make it a point next time I head out to buy a couple of large erasers just for this particular purpose. Thanks a lot for the tip.

      You mean pencil eraser that kids use in school? My mistake I had put some was odometer plastic, the transparent one. Now in day time I can see but in night its blurry.

      @@jeevan4337 Try an Art Supply store. Look in the Plastic Polish section, they should have a Plastic Cleaner and Polish in one. I seem to recall the product I used was "210" or had that in the brand name. That cleaner polish should remove wax from the gauges lens.

    Worked amazingly, I applied some black polish after to make the trim like new. I got a little black polish on my white paintwork, tried quickly wiping it off but it left a stain. Quickly tried some soapy water but still didn't come off, I then thought lets just see if the eraser trick works on this too? And hey presto it worked! Thanks

    What the... that's just bloody genius! Now, I know rubber erasers are great from removing patina on small metal parts, like copper and brass etc, but I never thought of using it on plastic trim to remove wax residue. I too have like 10 month old wax stains on the plastic on my car, that I haven't been able to remove and just now thought I'd look up on UA-cam, and wouldn't you know it, the answer was here all along. Thank you! :)

    Wow. I have tried all sorts of bumper and trim restoring and cleaning products over the years. They have all been pretty useless. Just tried a rubber. Worked a treat. There were some slight scuffs in the trim around the shell that had brushed against something. I kept rubbing them and they practically vanished.
