the eraser trick to get white wax/compound residue out of porous molding is a success
Just want to let you know for those who haven`t tried it yet, that the dirt cheap staple(store) is a success........i just got in after i gave it a go, and much to amazement i tworks lke a charm without too much elbow grease.....point in case : this white staining on the inside rubber seal of my doors, which a loca detailer told me i would never be able to get out, and i had to live with it ..........well A BIG FALSE to him as i got it out literally like magic with a ordinary pink eraser(3 for 1$) at staples !
I just couldn`t believe how easy it was to remove that staining with the eraser, using the sharp edge of it...plus i also removed white staining from previous waxing, abck where i didnt know better .
This nifty trick is so handy that i`d like to start a thread to gather all of them tricks like the above, or we could use this thread.
I`ll see how it goes.........i really wanted to share, as it is worth it

A friend and I were experimenting with Glass Cleaners and we`ve determined the following blend.
80% Concentration Isopropyl Alcohol added to DI Water in a 20:80 Concentration respectfully. Add this to a high quality sprayer and you`ve got cheap safe glass cleaner that works amazing and streak free.:up
BTW others on this site have recommended this in the past so it`s not original, just though I`d post it again though.
