Beware Turtle Wax!



I recently saw a metal polisher in the store, a new Turtle Wax 
wheel/metal polish. It mentioned on the bottle that it would polish 
chrome, stainless steel, aluminum, etc. So I took it home and tried 
it on a small patch of the roof of the car. I applied it, let it dry 
and buffed it. It looked OK.

So I applied it to the hood of the car, let it dry and buffed it. 
Unfortunately, it leaves a gummy white substance in the small 
crevaces of the brushed texture of the metal. It's only visible from 
some angles, which is probably why I didn't notice it when I tried it 
on the roof of the car.

I tried acetone, mineral spirits, buffing and washing to try to 
remove the substance. I figure it will eventually wear off, but it 
looks like it's going to take a long time. Beware Turtle Wax! Until 
then, does anybody know how to remove the stuff?
