Yes Wax is a good Thing ,,, Never ever ever use tire wet on the tire And Under no circumstance use the tire wet Gel Its Like putting Glue on your Tire , The stuff should be taken off the market , I Pulled a major Dumb *** Attack once and used tire wet to clean Under the hood Plastics ,,,, it took me about 3 hours to get it back to normal ,

The best product i have found to clean the plastic under the hood is Valco Products Its lasts for a long time and looks great
