how to get wax out of bodylines?
I waxed the Vette last week and got wax in the fine bodylines. I have been using a toothpick but there are some areas I still cant get. Suggestions?

Local auto parts store, or even Wallyworld, has small detailing tools with a soft rubber tip to get into the grooves.
Spray the area with a quick detailer, then wipe with the tool, (or Qtip), to clean the material out, then buff the area to remove excess.

Soft baby toothbrush works well.

wax
Like Z said above ... Get you a soft worn out tooth brush or a baby tooth brush - works great.

Q-tips, but that toothbrush suggestion sounds like a great idea.

Toothbrush bristles are a little too stiff for me. I use a paintbrush with the bristles cut off at about 1/2" long. It will really get things our from around chrome emblems and such. About time i discovered this I went to Zaino so it is a non-issue for me now.

I have been busy as hell and got a chance to read this. After I get my razr/ krzr (don't know what one) from the Verizon store tonight I'll have to definately try the toothbrush idea.

There are Qtips that are pointed also. I wouldn't use a tooth brush the bristles may cause marks in the paint.

Look at my starting thread question lol. That is what i have been using but a toothpick don't work on the really fine bodylines (like where the bumper/ass end is attached onto the Vette body).
