Default Wax is filling in paint chips on a black car

Hello everyone, i'm new to the forums here!
I have a small problem. I currently own a Black 03 hyundai tiburon. The wax is filling in the paint chips and is making them stand out even more. What i'm looking for (if anyone make it) is a black wax for something along those lines!

One other thing what product can i use to remove wax from rubber trim and plastic on cars where wax normally be. IE trim around doors, plastic grims or trim. things of those nature.

any help would be great

Thanks

An easy way to remove the wax residue in a paint chip is with an instant detailer like our Showtime Instant Detailer, and a towel. Those colored waxes really don't work well.

For the wax on plastic rubber trim, try a trim dressing - our Back-to-Black product is one the most widely known, and is available in most retail outlets.

As to the wax residue, you might want to try Reflections instead of the wax. I've used it over things like black textured door handles and no white residue is left! (after wiping the Reflections off, of course! )
I would say Reflections is one of the most "forgiving" paint protecting products that is widely available that you'll find anywhere. And it polishes too!
