Mr. Clean Autodry DOES NOT(!!!) strip wax. The soap contains a polymer that temporarily prevents water beading up, so it'll dry evenly. That's why people think it strips wax. But the next time it rains, the water beads right up again. I've been using Mr. Clean Autodry for months and water still beads up when it rains, the wax is still there.
