    isopropyl alcohol and a bristle brush with bristles about as stiff as a medium toothbrush. the alcohol will remove any wax or paint protection it touches so try not to get it everywhere. it will not hurt anything though.

    duragloss makes a product called "wax eraser" - some people have used peanut butter, somehow, but i have never tried it.

    ideally, use protection products that can be applied to trim and plastics without issue. that includes products like optimum spray wax or optimum sealant called "opti-seal". these sorts of things will not cause this issue for you in the future.
