[QUOTE="FlipTrac_511, post: 782623, member: 60310"] Another vote for Mother's "Back to Black". Treating the trim with this stuff before waxing will prevent any wax from taking hold. I discovered this accidentaly prior to detailing my Trac. I wanted to use 3M painter's tape to mask all the trim to shield them from stray wax/polish. But since I treated all trim with "Back to Black", the tape wouldn't stick! Turns out I didn't need the tape because even after using Mother's 3-step (which involves 3 separate coats) the trim was not stained. And I had lots of accidents and instances were I could not help running the buffer over portions of trim. I was quick to wipe off the accidents, but even wax/polish that I had overlooked and sat overnight still came off with no stains when I did find them. The key is to be liberal with the stuff. Apply it with a foam brush and, contrary to instructions of letting it penetrate for only a couple of minutes, I let it set for duration. [/QUOTE]
