Removing polish from rubber trim?

I accidentally got polish wax onto the black rubbering around the windows, and it has been difficult to remove with just scrubbing. Are there any recommendations for an efficient removal job? Thank you!

Isopropyl alcohol. Just use it on the rubber, it will remove wax or polish from painted surfaces if you get it on there.

What BB said, but I normally try to just mask off most of the rubber parts. Especially if your car is a little older and the plastic parts become a little more porous, it's a pain to get the wax off.
