I will post a pic of my bottle here in an hour or so when I get back to house. I was drinking one day and decided to try it. It's UV protected so even when the spray dies down after a few washes, it still doesn't have a horrible fade look...
Some times drinking and and phukn with stuff does work

I made the mistake of being careless and got yellow carnauba wax all over my fenders and door handles months ago.
I've tried everything to get it off from hot water to proffesional products.
I called Meguiars several times and all that did was make me invest more money into their products which didn't take it off.
I have tried scrubbing it off so much I've lightly scratched up the paint surround all the door handles and fenders.
If it was awesome offroad manly dirtiness I wouldn't care...but the mass of white stains on my blacked out 2011 is very upsetting. Its even on my metal sidesteps which I can't get it off of either.
Have used
Hot water
Peanut butter
Meguiars heavy duty vinyl cleaner
mothers back to black.
Next time im using turtle wax ICE

Ok well my can of WD-40 apparently has 0.25 ounces left in it so I gave it a test run on the antenna trim and my rock sliders/steps.
The eraser works... but I have no desire to spend 8 hours going over the entire car with an eraser if I can just WD-40 it or gasoline it off.
Little side note, is WD-40 totally safe for use on the paint? Like will prolonged exposure damage anything? Their website seemed pretty confident it was ok to use on paint.
