Wax removal
Just thought I'd suggest Farecla G3 body prep shampoo from halfords.
I needed to take the wax off my car so I could glaze it, then wax it.
2 washes with this and it was wax free, a single squirt in a bucket of hot water did the 5 series twice, could have probably done it 10 times.
For £6.99 a bottle it's worth having!
Top beading is waxed, bottom is stripped

I recommend the stuff, then it's your own decision. I would assume waitrose does fairy liquid, which I found out is simply not as good.

I hear bleach is best for your ears. Has to be some of that block Domestos strong shit though.
