About 3 months ago my customer took his 2013 BMW X3 home from the dealership.

They gave it a sloppy wax job. All around the car, the textured black plastic trim had dried up wax.

It was even around the mirrors & I cought a big piece on the sunroof rubber seals as well!

The short one is a travel sized toothbrush without the handle/plastic case.

I use that & the red brush to dig out dried up wax on the textured black plastic trim.

I cut the bristles down with a razor to make them stiffer.

The yellow one is soft enough to dig out fresh wax from the crackies without scratching the paint.

The big brown brush i use to remove light dust around the steering wheel & vents.

Thanks for looking!
 
What benefit is spraying the water on the dried Collinite? Is that "Spit-shing"? Never tried it, but read about it. Or is it something else?

bc it dries up hard & chalky if left to sit for more than a few mins. the water softens up the towel & makes it easier to remove. with water, after removal there are no streaks left over. always remove with 2 mf towels at a time.
