What is the best way to keep wax out of the rubber seals on the door handles? The handles have paint with the rubber on the outside. Also the middle of the doors where I guess it's a door crease?? It is a pain getting wax out of there. This is what I am using:

1. Quik Clay
2. DCS 1,2,3

Maybe I should use #26? Since it dries clear?

BTW do not drop a microfiber towel in the wood mulch!! Happened to me!! It sticks to the woodchips rather well and it's hard to pick the splinters out.

the best way to handle thos handles is to go very slow around them and not get wax on the rubber. but if you do get a bottle of tech prtect and spray a lil on the corner of a micro fiber and carefully work it into the rubber.

The new triple duty brush could help you get the dried wax out as well. I will be ordering one or two, so I cant say how they work, but door seams and whatnot is where I hope to be able to use them.

The best way is to slow down, focus on the task at hand and be careful. You could also get some painters tape at a PBE store that comes in very thin widths like 1/8 inch, maybe even thinner, I'd have to go look in my collection to see what's available.

The idea of using M26 because it dries clear is kind of good except the goal is to not get wax on trim components and rubber seals, and to also keep it out of cracks and crevices, not to have it there but not see it.

Slow down, come close to these areas, but not onto these areas.
