AIO *might* do it, but it might just make for a smeary, hard to remove residue instead.

I'd either wipe it down with a solvent like PrepSol or wash it with something like AutoInt's "A" or P21S TAW.

Can you explain a little more about P21S TAW? The description says nothing about removing wax which would make me think it is ok as a normal car wash. Shouldn't there be a warning about not using it as your weekly car wash?

Replaces a shelf full of other cleaners!
Quite possibly the most versatile car detailing cleaner ever made.
A little goes a long way.
Interior, exterior, or under the hood... this cleaner cleans it!

I first started using P21S Total Auto Wash in 1988 as a general purpose cleaner on my first Porsche. On the exterior, I used it as a tar and bug cleaner. Under the hood, I used it to clean the engine. Inside, I used it on my floor mats, carpet and upholstery stains. It's one of the best general purpose cleaners I've found. No serious car enthusiast should be without it.

PS Total Auto Wash is safe for paintwork (with or without clear coats), rubber, plastic, glass, chrome and all metals. You'll love the fresh orange scent.
