Try any sort of degreaser and a tooth brush. Its really just a matter of scrubbing the area to get the wax off.

Next time use Meguiar's NXT. It didn't leave ANY residue on my mouldings.

Could be. Peanut butter helps get adhesive residue off windows and plexiglass. Has something to do with the oil in it, as well as the fine abrasive quality of the ground peanuts.
