Wax Pencil on my Windows - SOLUTION

OK - I thought I had this one licked, but it rained (finally) yesterday, and I learned that the mist still allows you to read " '07 Nitro Demo! " on my back window from the geniuses at the Chrysler Dealership. (yes, I bought a demo)

I have used Windex, Fantastic, and even waxed the window with Maguire's to make this go away!

Evidently wax pencil is not so easily defeated. Any suggestions? :thk:

Yes thats good too! WD40 is good for some things I don't know about wax, alcohol will take off wax too!

First mineral spirits (odorless paint thiner) then rub it out with some polising compound. If that still doesn't work, follow it up with a clay bar.

Lot's of good suggestions here...I like pure acetone for getting tough stuff off.

Save the troubles and just replace the window :loser1:

Alright you thread Jackers!!:threadjacked: Let's get back ntopic:

It's probably been said but a good cleaner polish followed by a RainX type product should do the trick. :smileup:

Thank you all for the plethora of replies! (yes, I said plethora)

I will rub mineral spirits mixed with goo gone and dish soap on it with a newspaper while pounding a 5th of Jack Daniels.

If that doesn't work, when I wake up 6 hours later on my garage floor, I'll hit it with Rain X.

(Replacing the windows is an option I will reserve for absolutely last)

Thanks again. I'll let you all know how it works out!
