What do you guys use to remove wax from the gray engine area bordered by chrome?

 

I've used a stiff bristled toothbrush and some vigorous brushing. As long as the wax is dry it'll get most of it off.

 

Use Turtle Wax Ice, it will not leave any residue on black surfaces....

Just the toothbrush will not remove the dried wax because the surface is a rough texture.
Use a toothbrush and some "Black Again" liquid, the stuff you use on your cars rough textured moldings, etc. Even with this, you do have to scrub awhile to get the residue off...

I'm sure there are other products that will remove the dried wax but assure whatever you use, will not lighten or discolor the black surface.

 

try a toothbrush and Palmolive dish liquid dish soap, it will strip wax and oil

 

+1 on this . I use dawn but either works well.

 

Plain old ammonia removes wax.

Try some quick detailer spray, that's what we use at work to get buffing compound off. Meguires Final Inspection is the best.

 

Dawn dish detergent and toothbrush.

 

I've used windex that hase amonia in it and a small brush

 

Yep. Just give the bike a bath with Dawn. You'll be re-waxing the whole thing.
