Anyone know if a 10 to 1 dilution of purple power and some elbow grease will be strong enough to remove some wax from the plastic trim on my exterior?

Mother's Back to Black Heavy Duty Trim Cleaner works well when used with the included brush and followed up with a 2nd application with a microfiber.

Available on AGO or OTC for $10.99
 
I would not use an APC for stripping wax. Griots makes a surface prep spray. If you are going to polish you do not need to strip the paint. You can also use a paint work cleanser that will remove wax and sealants.
 
My bad. Wax removal from black plastic trim. Use a pink block school eraser. takes a little elbow grease but it comes off for good.

OP is asking about Trim.
 
That 1:10 ratio should do the trick though you may have to do a scrub and rinse process a few times

Since there is such a variety of plastics used in automotive applications...
I can't recommend Purple Power for use on your plastic trim.
{If you would decide to use it---Please do: "The Test Spot"!}

Instead, reach for one of these:
Mothers Back to Black Heavy Duty Trim Cleaner, best car wax remover plastic trim
Griot's Garage Dried-On Wax Remover, remove dried wax, Griots Garage Wax Remover

I would recommend 0:0. That is, do not use it on paint.
 
I still love a nice cleaner wax like Klasse. It makes the paint perfect and ready for the final love touches
