Post I used Mothers, how can I get rid off wax marks?

I waxed my car awhile back with Mothers wax. I will never do that again. Anyway, my front bumper has alot of spiderwebbing on it and the wax has gotten in the crack and I can't get it out. Now the front looks like a huge scab. I have tried scrubbing and scrubbing, used hot water, and tar&bug remover. Can anyone help me out?

Rubbing alcohol can remove old dried wax.

I used the rubbing alcohol on a rag and it's taking the paint off. I'm not rubbing very hard and the paint is turning my rag blue. Any other suggestions?

Have you had your front re-painted with non-clear coat paint? either that or your clear coat is gone, that is the only way the pigment from the base color coat could come off on the rag.
