    try ppg 330 wax and grease remover then go over it with dawn dish soap .watch out with the 330 if your paint is weak or oil base paint could take it off

    small bucket of water and soap mix strong use a soft rag .if the paint got hot the wax may have sunk in the paint but try it .if it will not work then 330 may takes the wax off it may turn it white

    I would have to agree with the silicon wax and grease remover. You have to use something that will cut wax, which is made to resist water.

    A sponge or soft cotton cloth would be the least harmful. If it is cheap paint, or primer, then it may not stand up to serious cleaning.
