Have had my E for 3 months and love it... one small problem, waxed it the first week and had a few overlaps onto the plastic panels... here we are 3 months later and can still see those nice white overlaps clear as day... anybody have experience or a solution removing the white wax residue from the plastic? Thanks.

After trying some of the suggestions here without success, I tried mineral spirits and a medium brush. I saturated a paper towel with the mineral spirits and applied it liberally to the wax stains. Some of the tougher stains sat with the mineral spirits for up to 5 min. I then brushed the area. Immediatly wash/flush these areas with water. Apply some form of protectant when done. Try to keep the mineral spirits off of the metal.
