I got some wax on some of my black plastic trim pieces last time I waxed the car.. Anything I can use to remove it?

I used simple green on a rag and trim dressing ( back to black or something similar) use it on the rag to wipe it off

One of our detailers suggested WD40, said it works for this.... I will give it a shot

Peanut butter. I know it sounds odd, but the oils in peanut butter break the wax down. Try it on a sample piece of plastic if you don't believe me. The only draw back is you shouldn't do it when hungry :)
