I don't believe that's wax residue. It looks like plastic weathering. It can be repaired with I believe a 3M product? Not sure.

Peanut butter is a temp fix....even a over the counter tire dressing would work as a temp fix. Those are just filling in the white with oils.

I've just used cleaners like a simple green or whatever and a short stiff bristle brush and scrub it with that. The car ideally would be wet while doing this, you don't want any of these cleaners drying up on your paint. Obviously try and not hit your paint with the brush when you do this. Oh and next time use some masking tape and tape off those areas before you polish.

if degreaser and tire shine doesnt work, there is trim paint in a can you can spray. 3m makes it and we use it at work and bcit. gives it that matte and gritty finish

I wouldnt use a clay bar on porous plastic like the mirror casings as the clay itself will just become imbedded in the plastic. Clay is meant for smooth surfaces like glass or paint.
