I am having a little problem with the black plastic on the exterior of my 2005 around the window on the doors turning chalky white. I think it is from wax getting on there. It doesn't wipe off and I am thinking of using Mother's Back to Black to clean it up. Any ideas?

Back to Black is an awesome product and should work well for your problem.

You are right, it is wax. If back to black doesn't do the trick use some peanut butter and a toothbrush. It works just as well and is a lot cheaper. You just have to spend more time cleaning it off after.

Thanks, I am very happy with it. First time I used it was on the wheel wells on my girlfiend's Jeep. They stayed black for a few months and they are fading again. But I guess you just need to reapply every once in a while like everything else.
