Over-wax on plastic trim

When I first got the car I was new to car detailing and got wax on black plastic trim peices, in particular the mudflaps.

I'd like to remove this wax, yet am not sure what product to use.

Wax Stain Removal:
Excess wax and polish residue can be removed using Groit’s Wax Remover & Cleaner, it permanently removes embedded wax residues in textured bumpers, matt-finish vinyl panels, trim mouldings (works on any colour trim) and weather-stripping.

It instantly dissolves unwanted wax streaks and stains (the oils dissolve the dried on wax or polish) Wipe away any excess oil, lightly spray with clean distilled water and re-apply a vinyl or rubber protective dressing.
The use of masking tape will avoid any wax residue on plastic or vinyl.

What's the main ingredient in this stuff?
