removing wax

[dben]

I saw the thread about how to remove wax off of side mouldings. However, what's the best way to remove wax off of the body paint?

I repainted part of my 1/4 panel but i must have sprayed part of it from too far away becuase the clear coat didn't stick. So when I waxed the car, it stuck into the paint. So my next question is, once I remove the wax, should I just spray some automotive clear coat on there?

use soap detergent, the stuff you use to clean dishes..its a degreaser so it would take the wax off of the body paint and moldings...

clay bar.

yeah, i'd go with the clay bar. if that doesn't work well, you could try 3M general purpose adhesive remover. later.

If I clay bar, is it okay if I do just the area where the wax is stuck or will I have to do the entire car?

After clay barring should I do anything else to the area before I spray it with clearcoat?

Thanks for the replies.

if I am not mistaken the clay bar will just take off the wax and leave all of the paint and clearcoat on there. I don't think there is any need to use the clay bar on any of the other unwaxed areas.
