Thats right. I shit you not. Peanut butter. Just took off 20 years of wax build up and oxidization. $3 at your local store. Put on a good coat and then wipe it off really well...

This is by far one of the most advanced cleaning products I have even used, invented by one of our most presitigous scientists of ALL time.
